I LOVE CHEESE! But I'm finding that as I grow older, I'm becoming more lactose intolerant.
Suggestions anyone? I'd almost rather die than give up cheese. (and BACON)
What can you not live without?

But I won't DIE over it...I would just look like the walking dead...

Try non-dairy cheese alternatives like the Daiya brand.
I love cheese as well but after having a bout where I could consume nothing but Gatorade and soy milk for about a week, and a subsequent month of taking both Prilosec and Zantac as prescribed by my doctor, I have stopped all dairy intake. (I never had to take them before and probably only ever took Tums a dozen times in my life.) I used to be able to eat everything and anything with no issues.
I also stopped drinking coffee.
At the time, I also had to stop eating tomatoes, onions and other acidic foods.
I can eat a few tomatoes and onions now but still don't drink coffee (I've had two tall soy decaf lattes in the past four months) and I am doing much better now but I'm still having to be more careful than I ever had to do before. I NEVER had problems like that. Hopefully, I never will again.
Luckily, there are great substitutions these days for just about everything.0 -

It's a bummer to have to stop eating something you love because your body doesn't tolerate it any longer! I feel bad for those of you who have to deal with that. I am glad to see more and more good substitutes, like the coconut milk treats - I hated feeling guilty for having a scoop of ice cream in front of the hubs!0 -
Nothing.
I could give up anything really.0 -
Coffee and peanut butter. Make life worth living!0

You are my new favorite person-- I will test those out. I was realizing yesterday that some of my dairy-related symptoms are back (since I love cheese too) and that I need to start cutting it out again. Maybe after I eliminate it for awhile I will try rotating those in.0 -
NOTHING! I love my life too much!0

There's nothing I would die for. But there are a couple things I would happily stay fat for...
