      fresh bakery white bread. yum!!!
      that being said the only things I have given up are cake & cheesecake - everything else in moderation has been working for me so far.

      oh God yes, that's another thing I save for cheat day, my favourite white bread is Ciabatta with marg or butter of course!

      Definitely bread but I found a cheat. I got a recipe for no knead ciabatta bread and I make it quite often. It's much healthier this way and I don't even eat as much b/c I have to plan to make it due rising time.

      Ooh yum are you willing to share your recipe with us?

      I haven't really given up anything, I still have pizza, Chinese food, chocolate (these are things I couldn't give up completely) but there are a few things I avoid having in the house because I can't stop at just one:

      Cakes
      Biscuits / cookies
      Bread and cheese at the same time (I'd go mental with cheese on toast)

      I will still have these things occasionally if I'm out or at someone else's house but if I have them at home it's too hard on the willpower. Yes I CAN eat a whole pack of jaffa cakes in one go.

      There's no reason to give anything up. So I don't.

      In my opinion, unless you were eating heroin or urinal cakes or plutonium before, there's really nothing that you absolutely must give up in order to eat healthier and lose weight.

      To be totally honest, I haven't really given anything up. I've just been eating the same things but less of it :) Unless you put pizza in front of me.. then it's all over for the day lol

      ^^THIS^^ Totally. And even then I'm still not doing too great! :/

      Cheese for me. Odd because I thought it would be chocolate but not touched any for two weeks now and not bothered. I just have a thin slice of cheese half way through the day and I'm good :)

      Why give up anything? The key, surely, is moderation.

      bread

      Same here! I loooooooove bread! But it has to be white! The worst kind!

      bread, bagels and cheese. I do like some lower fat cheese like philadelphia but sometimes only a strong cheddar will do :(

      I cannot give up anything. But I have no problem with other people giving up stuff. More for me. :p

      LMAO! Tooo funny! I just busted my gut. HA!

      Chocolate - I have to have it after lunch and dinner EVERY DAY!

      I thought cheese would be near-impossible too, but I gave it up for lent this year and found it surprisingly okay. I did try and give up chocolate for lent a couple of years ago and lasted 4 days :)

      Mexican food would also be difficult - I think I'd be depressed without guacamole!

      I haven't given up anything that I really love. I simply eat it moderation. I don't want to go the rest of my life without a Reese's peanut butter cup or bread or pizza.
      This. :) No need to give up anything, unless it makes you ill of course.

      Pasta and bread

      Its not that I can't give them up on my own, its just very HARD to because that is all that my fiance's italian family cooks and eats.

      I would actively struggle giving up cheese. Is there anything betta then chedda and feta?

      Also, eggs. Nature's candy, those things.
