    I eat moderate amounts of everything, but do not enjoy and do not want super greasy or super sweet things anymore. Fried chicken, fudge, that sort of thing. Kind of sucks because I used to make french macarons, which have tons of sugar by necessity, but they make me a little ill now! Still appreciated by family and friends though.

    I seem to be having the opposite issue. I now crave things that never interested me before - doughnuts, cake, chocolate, sweets in general - and I no longer care for fresh salads the way I used to. It's kind of disturbing.

    That is kind of odd. Maybe you have low insulin?

    Possibly. I've noticed food in general just tastes better than it used to. Maybe it's because I gave up mindless eating. When you log everything and you are aware of the nutritional content it makes every bite a little more significant.

    That's true. It could be that as well.

    Speaking of greasy foods . . . I used to regularly eat the burgers at the cheap, local burger place (one of those places where you can't even go inside, you just get it at a counter open to the outdoors) and now even smelling them is unpleasant. They're sooo greasy.

    It actually makes me a little sad because they pay their workers really well, they get health care and college scholarships. I'd rather support them than McDonalds or Burger King. If only their burgers were less greasy!! I do still get ice cream cones there, though.

    you named the awful restaurants, what is the name of the well paying one? AND can you ask them to blot your burger and omit the ?mayo? so its not so greasy?

    Dick's Hamburgers in Seattle. Their burgers are pre-made and wrapped, so you can't customize them. (That is part of the reason they're so cheap, lol.) Maybe I'll grab one of their milkshakes this week, those are good.

    I no longer crave soda, pizza, bread or Rita's water ice like I did when I first started this journey. I've found substitutions that work for me (sparkling water, etc.). But I do find that I crave a wider variety of food now.

    Since I started drinking Pepsi max I don't crave sweets as often, I still like and enjoy sweets but I don't crave them the way I did before.

    My sweet tooth almost completely vanished when I started making fresh produce a major part of my diet. But even now that I eat healthy the stuff I 'crave' is still caloric, like avocados and nuts.

    I no longer crave soda at all. I've been soda free now for over a month. If I feel like a fizzy drink, it's club soda for me. :-D
