    I need to give this a shot. I haven't been my usual exemplary self lately. Last night after completing my diary, I had too much dark chocolate, so I need to stay away from that for awhile. I had several servings last week. The only item on the list that I would like to continue to allow myself, as long as it doesn't get out of hand, is baked corn chips. I eat them with lots of fresh healthy salsa. Its a fun way to get my veggies in and I can usually just count out the chips to make one serving. Oh, and I would like to continue eating nut butters (like tahini and peanut) as long as they are in a healthy recipe (hummus, thai noodles). I will refrain from all other uses of nut butters.

    Hopefully, this challenge will help me get back on track. Thanks Leah.

    I'm so down! I will have to modify my list of "No's" because I rarely eat Dark Chocolate, but consider it non-junky... 'cause I get the "good stuff" ;o)

    I won't be leaving this out...I love peanut butter as a fill me up protein with lunches or as a snack with celery, otherwise I'm so in this!!

    I'm so in! This is a great challenge to motivate me as a new member of My Fitness Pal. ;-) I'm adding energy/protein bars to the list too. No matter how healthy they are, I tend to eat several of them... and that adds up FAST. And NO PIE. My fiance and I got into this whole "pie is delicious" thing, and we've got to stop making them!

    I don't really know what a fish cake is, but if you don't think it's junk food, it probably isn't. Or if you DO think it's junk food... it probably is. :laugh: I probably was no help here!

    I'm in too. But I'm gonna have to start tomorrow. I had a bag of fun size M&M's a little while ago. Someone brought them into work and set them in a dish just outside the office door. They were looking at me every time I walked by I had to have a bag. Ok, I didn't HAVE to have a bag but they were just too tempting. Tomorrow will be different though :) promise.

    I would like to join! :) Junk food is what I struggle with; if I get to the end of the day under my calories it makes me want to go get some french fries or a cookie or something. I've been trying to eat cleaner and healthier so I think this will be perfect.

    I'm in!! This is exactly what I need.. I am running my first half marathon Dec 4, and have really given in to junk food lately... I have got to get the sugar under control!!! I will start this Thursday the 3rd, so I can finish up the day before Thanksgiving... Getting all the sugar out of my system will help fend off the holiday cravings!! Thanks for starting this challenge!!
