    I'm part Filipino, so it is hard for me to give up vinegar and garlic.

    I have given up NO FOODS.
    I set calories to 3000 to account for my activity level, exercises and other variables, and am losing a half a pound per week.
    Out of the 70 lb total weight loss, half of that resulted from a 2200 calorie diet, reflecting a deficit to affect a 2 lb per week weight loss, and my last 20 lbs were at 2500 where I lost 1lb weekly. After reaching my goals, I reset, then lowered my weekly loss expectation to a half a pound. Again, I have my daily calories set at 3000.
    It works:drinker:
    If your input is right, all will be well.

    Eat what you want; moderation is key.

    Beer.

    Any food I enjoy eating. There is never a reason to deprive yourself of something you love. Moderation is key.

    This!

    BUT in the begining I did cut way back on my chocolate and cut out baked goods all together. Because baked goods primarily brownies is my down fall if there are brownines around I am in trouble!! lol It took me about 2 weeks to get my stability going then I can eat whatever with will power! including brownies! GO ME..

    But I can say for sure that I CAN NOT give up maccaroni and cheese! Not even in the short term! OMG its an addiction I tell you... Thank God it can be modified with whole grain pasta and lower fat cheese and milk to make it a little better for me!

    Nothing is really 'off-limits' for me but if somebody told me I had to give up Starbucks, I'd probably fight pretty hard.

    Have you tried no pudge brownies? they're fat free, and 1 serving in the microwave is low calorie. I make mine with applesauce (instead of yogurt, which a lot of people use) to keep the calories even lower. I love the cappucinno flavor from no pudge, it's great.

    It's not a food but I wouldn't give up alcohol, lol. Once a week I need to have drinks with friends!!

    Beer cheese and bread

    I really don't have to give up anything.

    I'm good.
  • I haven't give up anything that I really love. Like it's been said a million times, moderation is key. But if I had to choose one food, it would probably be pizza. nom nom nom

    Bacon, lettuce and tomato sandwich, with mayo and pepper and swiss cheese.....but not until we get tomatoes out of the garden...

    Bacon.

    I will not give it up. NOT EVER.

    ... and cheeseburgers from Five Guys, though I only have one of those every month or so.
  • Hot tea... with a mini moo. It's low cal so it's not hard to keep in my diet but I used to drink literally 10-15 cups a day so now I have pared it back to just 2. It's been rough but I'd rather spend 200 calories on something filthy like a couple of chocolates than tea. I just drink water when I'm thirsty now.
  • dont think i could give up my biscuit and tea when kids are in bed, only time you truly get to enjoy it!
  • amen, sister!! LOL!!

    I won't jinx myself by saying anything. Because for sure it would be the next food that I was allergic to and had to give up!
