Beer, pasta alfredo, java rice... Man I love those three but they made my waistline expand plus their calorie contents are unforgiving even if its homemade (talking about the latter two, not the beer of course).0

earthtoemilyy - sorry about your break up they suck especially when its not mutual. I hope he comes to his senses or your find someone that see's how special you are. Mmm chocolate is good but luckily, I'm not a big sweet tooth person so thats easy for me.
MAC &&&& CHEESE omg ;__; the best thing ever invented in a box. I'm going to miss it!
primmmy - hahaa you sound like my guy friends, it could seriously be 3am everyones drunk and there all making bacon, Patton and eggs. Us girls are just like ew really xD0 -
i know you said, "not talking moderation" but i honestly haven't given up on anything yet. i like variety, so if i don't eat one thing today, i'll make sure i eat it tomorrow kind of thing.0

Gluttony.
Greed, wrath, pride, envy, sloth and lust are calorie-free. I'm on my way to perfection!
Ha ha!0 -
You don't have to give up anything to lose weight!!! if you like ice cream, burgers and pizza eat them but COUNT THE CALORIES!!!! that's the main thing! I managed to lose weight eating burgers and ice cream almost every day!0

I would have to say eating out, and only because its incredibly easy to go all out and eat over a days worth of calories in a one hour sitting. Yes, I still get fast food, but I am fully aware of what I put in my belly ahead of time! Otherwise, I would really only say I try to make myself more aware of the bad foods im eating. I want to say im lucky to eat almost everything I used to but I would probably be getting better results if I stopped eating the chocolate chips and yogurt pretzels and ice cream(mostly frozen yogurt) every day/other day. 1lb a week isnt bad though. I just try to eat under 100-200calories of those yummy snacks! Portion control is key!
One of my favorite "sweets" is the 10 calorie packs of jello, if you like them.. at night time they really help curve the sweet tooth and have practically NOTHING in them. : )0 -

no kidding! me too0 -
Since joining this site I don't even set foot in the snack/chips/candy aisles at the grocery store. There's no room for Chex Mix, Combos, Cheez-Its, or Skittles in my new lifestyle.
I'm also fighting to give up Pepsi. Sometimes I can go forever without soda, other times I just give in. But I always log it and make sure I still stay under my limit.
Mmm Cheez-its sucks that most of the yummy things aren't good for us haha. Your looking really good! keep up the good work
TitanGM - nice pic looks like you've giving up plenty of time but its paying off!
ucpg - I dont have enough self control to do the "in moderation" thing. its either I eat too much of ex: chips or I don't at all.0 -

True, but I noticed quickly when I'm on a daily calorie limit that there were many high-calorie foods in my old diet that would not keep me sated long enough. Those things had to go.0 -
my social life
Oh dang, I was about to write that! :laugh:0 -

I know buttttttttt, I want to have a healthy eating life style and theirs no room in mine for sodas, chips, ice creams, ect.0 -
I honestly can't think of anything I've given up completely. Not even Bailey's cheesecake! :drinker: If I want it, I make room for it. And it's more about what your food is made of...for instance, if I want pizza, I have pizza, but I make it myself with fresh/natural ingredients and a whole wheat crust...none of this frozen or store bought stuff that's loaded with sodium, high fructose corn syrup, and other crap. As a general rule, the more ingredients it has, especially if you can't pronounce them, the worse it probably is for you. I focus more on clean eating than I do what I can and can't eat.0

i gave up laziness :P0

Cheese. I love CHEESE!
With the rest of stuff like pizzas and pasta's I still eat them but count calories. Swapped normal pop for diet pop. 1 calorie per can. That'll do me marvelous!0 -
Eating whatever I want when out, a lot of the chocolate, ben and jerries, all take out food - logging it just makes it impossible for me to justify it0

Lying to myself about what I am eating - finally realised there is no point0
