    I haven't given up anything really. If I crave something, I will eat it in moderation, work it into my caloric intake for the day, and/or exercise a little more to burn it off.

    There are somethings that I don't eat because I don't find it worth the caloric expenditure.

    I agree with the poster who said there is nothing she wouldn't give up to lose weight. However... I loooove chocolate and every now and then I'll treat myself. If my weigh program is working like a clock and I am moving toward my goal I may on rare occasion get a small candy bar. But every morning with my coffee, I add a bit of 1% lowfat milk and a teaspoon or two of no-sugar-added Nesquik to make a low-cal mocha. Yum!

    mmmmm Lindt dark chili chocolate.

    But I maintain that a little dark chocolate is good for you :)

    Everything else can go.

    Cheeses are a big downfall of mine (Feta, Parmesan, Gruyere, Sharp Cheddar, etc) and butter. I will NOT give up butter. I may cut back on it, but there is no way in hell I will give it up or switch to margarine!! And bacon. As long as I am not around bacon I am ok, but if I catch a whiff...you know that Beggin Strips commercial..."IT'S BACON!!"

    Mexican food (I eat taco salads though and little or no shell), Chocolate, ice cream. I budget my calories for these items. Honestly, I haven't totally written off anything (except chick fil a and other fast food milkshakes). I just modify or eat less of things that I love and eat them far less frequently! If I make something "forbidden" I'm more likely to crave it!!

    I work it off, or enjoy a smaller portion. I couldn't possibly keep up anything forever if it meant I couldn't eat what I enjoy.

    Amen Sistah! :)

    And if your trying to cut back on those two mcdonalds cheeburgers you should watch movies about whats in their food or watch super size me or something. I use to LOVE McDonalds but now, I feel like throwing up thinking about it!

    Actually reports say that cold pressed dark chocolate is VERY good for you (in moderation, of course). It is full of antioxidants, and it does in fact trigger endorphins to put you in a good mood.

    So get your chocolate on!!

    my guilty pleasure is ranch dressing, i eat reanch dressing on everything and i have tried the Fat Free will never do that again and i tried to make myself like the light, i flat out refuse i will just work extra hard and eat less of everything else to eat my ranch dressing!!!!!

    AMEN! I won't give in on the salad dressings. Fat free Ranch and Thousand Island is disgusting! I do like the reduced fat Paul Newman Sesame Ginger, though. But ranch? Pfft...buttermilk whole fat ranch or forget it!

    Twice-baked almond croissants from Bakery Nouveau in Seattle. I probably only have one about once a month, but if I'm going to have something bad it's got to worth the calorie count.

    I watched Supersize Me and it just made me want a Filet-o-Fish.

    Fat Head is a good counter to that. I believe that nothing that I eat is really that bad if I'm not exceeding calories.
