    Bingeing.

    I can't give up any type of food, it only makes me obsess about it which will always lead to a binge.
    Moderation is key.

    During my first year, I gave up all soda, but now I don't shy away from anything. Eveything in moderation for me, I'm happier that way, and tend to stay on track better.

    I gave up eating a lot of carbs and all junk foods. And I also gave up my boyfriend as of last night!!

    :drinker:

    As for me, I've not given up anything. I eat fairly clean, but nothing is off limits.

    Wait... I've gotten rid of a few negative 'real-life' friends. Eff that noise.

    I gave up eating things that I don't really care for anyway, like those Flavor-Aid pops and such.

    I also gave up drinking pop unless it's made with Stevia, which is only a few, rare brands.

    Productivity. Also the forums have helped solidify my abandonment of hope in the human race.

    I had my first drink with vodka since starting. I thought I would have loved it but, oddly, I didn't. It was ok, but not at all what I expected. I didn't even finish what I had

    I haven't given up anything...I eat things that I used to eat but way less than I used to eat them.

    I gave up Coca Cola and I'm also trying to force myself to try new foods so I don't get bored with what I am eating...tried raw pumpkin seeds today and ate my salad without dressing. Pumpkin seeds were good...salad without dressing, not so much.

    Nothing! I have cut back on unhealthy foods and drinks, but I allow myself to have them occasionally, especially in small portions.

    I gave up being obese and feeling horrible about myself.

    I lost all of my weight by eating what I wanted and slowly adding in more fruit and vegetables. Honestly, I don't really miss the old crap I used to eat.

    TV Dinners like Lean Cuisine and stuff. It just happened naturally. I realized I didn't want all that sodium and preservatives in my body. I'm very thankful for MFP!

    If you mix salsa with half a serving of dressing, it goes a lot further without all the extra calories.

    Ruffles Lays and Helluva Good Onion Dip!

    I try not to give up anything, or else I will crave and binge, but this one I had to give up. I can't seem to stop eating them once I start!
