    Soda, it was a serious addiction. I don’t like soda from a can so I would buy the 16oz bottles, and would drink 4+ a day. I’m saving a boatload of money on my grocery bill now, and saving the environment.

    Soda
    Most fast food (Once in a while i will do Taco Bell)
    High sodium foods. I never knew how dehydrated I was until I stopped eating them

    Milk. I use to be pretty hooked on that. Consuming almost 1 liter a day, not good when one is lactose intolerant. Replaced it pretty much completely with almond milk now, my store added a new brand with high calcium and added vitamins and only 17 cal per 100 ml. My toilet and body thanking me for it XD

    Candy, working on not eating chips anymore as well. I can't just eat 1 serving and then it trigger me to overeat or binge.

    I'm sure I still like them, but by going cold turkey my cravings for them disappeared. I was eating a bag per day (2-2.5 servings) before. That is about 300-400 calories. I switched to pop chips for a while (100 calories) then I just stopped.

    So far I've only cut out regular sodas, sweet tea, and butter. Honestly it has helped the weight loss a lot

    Eggs.
    I am egged out at the moment and could not convince myself to pick up a dozen the other day, even as emergency/breakthrough food. Usually every 3-5 years or so of regular egg consumption I get burnt out on the wee unborn beasties. It will last anywhere from a couple weeks to a solid year.

    Sardines.
    Ate waayyy too many tins of sardines the '16/'17 winter/spring trying to identify those that I liked the best. Am starting to eye the tins left in the pantry so there's hope for 'em yet.

    These. Nothing else compares :)

    This is my favorite post! I love these!

    I quit putting it on things (like toast or muffins) but still put it in things (when called for in a recipe). It really doesn't make that much difference because I never really used it all that much. I was working on lowering sat fat because my LDL was over 100. I don't have any cardiovascular problems, so it is really okay for it to be were it is, but I really want it lower. I got it down from 116 to 110, doing the oatmeal thing, avoiding sat fats and walking more.

    Regular calorie frozen deserts is all that comes to mind (not worth the calories to me vs a fruit sorbet, halo-top, or some nice cream). The same goes for regular calorie soda (but I do consume diet soda).

    This thread can't make up its mind whether it's the OP's "foods I stopped eating because I no longer care for them" or a "foods I stopped eating because they aren't worth the calories" thread.

    I used to eat peanut butter and banana toast every. single. day. for months, but I guess I burned myself out because I transitioned to Greek yogurt with jam, got sick of that, and am currently on a cottage cheese kick. I am perfectly happy eating the same snack every single day for a week at a time, until suddenly I'm not. I like variety in my dinners, but I'm lazy when it comes to snacks.

    But no red wine. Ever. Food poisoning ruined red wine for me, and the smell will forever make me want to vomit.

    Artificial sweeteners.

    Before I get a bunch of woos, here is some science behind my opinion:
    https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2892765/
    original source - The Yale Journal of Biology and Medicine is a PubMed-indexed, open access, quarterly journal edited by Yale medical, graduate, and professional students and peer reviewed by an extensive network of experts in the fields of biology and medicine.
    artificial sweeteners, precisely because they are sweet, encourage sugar craving and sugar dependence. Repeated exposure trains flavor preference [54]. A strong correlation exists between a person’s customary intake of a flavor and his preferred intensity for that flavor.

    I guess I am some kind of freak then. I use Splenda in my coffee every morning and drink diet Pepsi all day, yet, I prefer chips and Doritos over candy or ice cream...
