    One of my biggest cuts was bread as a side dish. I used to make crescents, garlic bread, or biscuits 4-5 nights a week as a side to my dinner, and I think I've only had them twice in the past 6 months.

    Pop Tarts, regular soda, nuts, desserts in general, cheese as a snack, pretzels, chips... the list goes on and on. My grocery list has certainly changed!

    Nutella. Because I just can’t stop eating it.

    Every now and then I wanted a big greasy burger, but as I normally do I talked myself out of it. Normally after eating a big burger and fries I am full for the moment, but then I still want to eat later in the day. This is what I normally do. However I did order in pizza and wings this weekend and I enjoyed, and still am enjoying it.

    I rarely have toast or cereal for breakfast anymore.

    Since Girl Scout Cookie season is upon us.... Samoas.
    I bought 4 boxes and they're just sitting in my cabinet at work.

    I thought that I could have one serving but one serving is 2 cookies. I want 2 servings every time, but 2 servings is 300 calories and I can't justify that.

    Dont know if its "enjoyed eating" exactly but after 25+ yrs veg I find myself struggling with an addiction to cheeseburgers as comfort food. It started about 3 yrs ago when I began having seizures and somehow meat entered my life. Doing much better now. No meat for several days, already feeling better, less sluggish and, errr, well, stopped up. Finding it hard still to up my protein to decent level but will be back in swing before long. Kinda miss a burger when I'm feeling stressed. Got artisan bread, brown mustard, lots of greens and some portabello n peppers to substitute. One meal at a time I guess.

    Foie gras. I just can't bring myself to eat it anymore, on ethical grounds.

    Wretched peanut butter. One serving is just not enough and two servings makes me ashamed, LOL...

    It's a personal choice. I would not get full on one bowl nor is it nutrition I need. And I would eat more than one bowl bc it's sweet and I would like eat the whole box quickly. I would not trust myself with that. But I think if you haven't missed it don't stir the hornets nest bc when I do I regret buying what for me could possibly be a trigger food like chocolate anything. I will eat it all and that is why none resides here

    Pasta, cheese, dessert, cereal. I'm sure there are others that I can't think of right now too.

    The Samoas struggle is real! My one serving is one row, that's like 5-6 cookies. I cannot keep them in my house!

    Oh the dreaded Girl Scout Cookies. I can’t do it either. Last year (soon after I started losing) I bought a box of savanah smiles (the lemon ones) they’re lower calorie than the others, but I ate half the box in one sitting and felt awful. Never again... I’d rather just write them a check and save myself the guilt.

    I love girl scout cookies. They are only available at certain times here, and I tend to buy them only once a year -- normally when my church lets the girl scouts sell them there after mass -- and I get a couple of boxes of thin mints and a couple of samoas (which are my favorites, but I like both) and then mostly parcel them out. Last year it was during Lent so I waited until after Easter to eat them.

    Actually, you can do this and have them ship the cookies to our soldiers that are posted overseas - this way you get to buy the cookies and feel great about helping at the same time!

    Pepsi- any soda really, I used to guzzle the stuff, now I'm turned off by it. I think it's the carbonation, makes me choke and bloats me up.

    This is something I've also almost given up. I have it very rarely now. Like maybe once or twice a year.

    So many things. But I don't really miss eating like that, so mindlessly.

    How did you start getting all the sweets out of your diet in the first place? I am just starting a diet change and am in need of advice on the best course of action to make this work.
