Just curious to see if you have cut out on anything whether its food or drink, that has helped you to loose weight?
I have cut out bread, i have not eaten bread, naan bread, pitta bread, pizza (all types of bread!) since 31st december 2010! That was my last sandwich. It feels weird to say to people that I havent touched bread since december 2010! They look at me daft! But because I gained soo much weight in a few years from eating sandwiches like there going out of fashion, I wanted to try and cut it out completey too see if it would have an effect of my weightloss. And guess what... IT HAS! :bigsmile:
Bread stays in your system for 3 months, there for I have no bread in my tummy what soo ever!! :happy: It was hard at first! But im used to it now, I love it when my friends scoff pizzza from the Kebab house in town, yet i can stand next to them, smell the pizza and NOT crave it anymore! I used to eat 12inch pizzas from the Kebab all to myself! Now i think i would be sick at the thought of that!
Im planning of keeping bread out of my diet untill I have reached my goal weight (another 3stone to go) And from there I will take it easy, Thats if my body can cope with bread when im 10 stone! and not the old 16 n half stone that i was!!![:smile: :smile:](https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/resources/emoji/smile.png)

Im suprised your still alive then if youve cut out food!:drinker:0 -
Dominos, KFC, McDonalds, Burger King, Takeaways of any variety0

Soda, calorie bomb fast food. I only eat pasta on lifting days. If you want to find a good way to be able to eat anything you like from time to time, look into carb cycling.0

I don't think there is a particular food group I've eliminated, but one thing that has made a difference is virtually eliminating eating after 7pm. Evening snacking accounted for a lot superfluous calories. Instead I have unlimited mugs of herbal tea, and occasionally a hard candy.
I still eat bread, pasta, rice, etc. but those are the foods I weigh/measure most carefully to limit quantities.
I drink far less pop now as well. Probably just a diet coke a couple of times a month.0 -

Since January 3, I have not had:
Soft Drink - I could have easily drunk a 2 litre bottle of Coke in an evening. Bought a bottle of Coke Zero, had 2 mouthfuls and threw the rest away. Now I love water and if I want the bubbles I have sparkling mineral water or soda water with a hint of lemon.
Hot Chips - Used to have a few on the side every lunchtime
Chocolate - I work at Cadbury so am surrounded by it and could easily have 2 bars a day without even thinking about it. Who would not want to eat free chocolate??0 -
I've cut out NOTHING! lol
I stopped fizzy drinks for a while but it didn't really make a difference, so i started drinking them again. Although i don't drink as much as i used to.
I'm tempted to try stopping bread, but i think i'll fail big time. Toast, sandwiches, pizza, buns, don't think i could do it lol.
I think you have done amazing to go without it for so long!
I just stick to eating in moderation. If i want something i'll have it, as long as it fits in my calories. That way i don't crave it, then end up binge eating lol.
The food i eat isn't the best, but it's a lot better than i used to eat

I tend to stay away from 'white' food; bread, pasta, rice, etc and stick to wholemeal or brown versions. I have also cut back from having fizzy drinks everyday to only have the odd one when I am in the pub. I feel a lot less bloated because of this.0

I have cut out POP, and junk food just recently. And my alcohol intake is next to none now.0

I havent eliminated anything from my diet and I'm losing. It's just a matter of having things in moderation.
Why would you want to cut out something that you like? Just reduce the amount, I think. I cut out a lot of things last year, and it resulted in a huge amount of weightloss until my cravings started to increase and I ended up binging out. We all need carbs, protein, fats and sugar but its just how you go about it, is the important part.
7 pounds of weight crept back on and now I''ve nearly rid of that thank God. Used to have crisps and chocolate every day, now it's about 1 a week. We all deserve a treat now and again...:laugh:
Small changes make a big change. If you like pasta, have brown instead, if you like crisps, try snack a jacks or ryvita minis0 -
I have watched my sugar intake a lot lately and it has helped. I wasn't exactly mindlessly eating fruit but I have definitely cut back! 1 cup of grapes is like my daily limit of sugar =(
It is sad because I sure love fruit but oh well haha... its on the list of other things I have cut back on.0 -

im the same! I used to drink gallons and gallons of Dr.pepper, coke, fanta etc! And ever since i swapped it all for water I can hardl drink fizzy pop anymore! I can just about drink a can of coke let alone big litre bottles like i used to!!
OMG you work at cadbury!!! Id LOVE to work there!! Seriously!! any jobs going there?0 -
I cut out fast food, I switched my carbs from white to brown, I don't drink pop of any kind, I avoid artificial sweetners altogether. As I've gotten further along in this muscle building phase, I don't even want sweets anymore, I crave high protein foods. I drink more milk (skim) than I used to. I load up on fruits and veggies.0

Bread, rice, twinkies, fried everything...0
-
I stopped drinking 5 cans of soda a day...startign drinking more water and then started lifting weights again!0

Crisps (aka potato chips to you US peeps!)
I used to eat crisps nearly every day at one point and they are literally the worst things you can possibly eat- laded with sat fat & no nutritious value at all. Once I start eating them I cannot put them away, even if it's a massive bag of Doritos or Pringles.
I just don't buy them any more at all. Chocolate I can just about manage to restrain myself with but crisps are like crack to me, I think it's all that MSG salt crap they put in them, it's addictive.:sad:0 -
I have heard that anything processed should be limited so our livers aren't working overtime to filter out the stuff thats in it... and I heard sugar is the main baddy and its interesting to watch where it is and what foods apparently basically turn to sugar when they get into our system. Something I was watching said to avoid bread and pasta (both white and brown) but rice and sweet potatos were all good (as carb options). I agree though everything in moderation is a pretty good philosophy0

Been cutting out excuses. helped me alot. Like a boss!
But seriously, cutting out on eating out has helped me alot. I literally have to struggle to fill my calories alotted because when I eat home cooked meals (and delicious ones mind you!) I can stuff myself and still have low calorie food0 -
I am considering cutting out mayonnaise and cheese, they are so my weakness, love tuna and chicken mayo
Have cut out bread and baked goods and sugar, only have them on cheat days.0
