There is one food that single handedly put many of these pounds on me. If it were banished from the face of the earth loosing those pounds would be soooo much easier!!!

What's yours?

Mine: crackers!

cereal. no question!

I think the whole world could live without cheetos. They serve no purpose. Cheetos are the devil.

McDonald's double cheeseburger

ice cream

ice cream

Ditto!

Well, for me it is only Baskin-Robbins ice cream. I have no interest in any other ice cream on the planet. In fact, a lot of it, like Cold Stone, I can't even stand. But put BR in front of me and I can chow down like there is no tomorrow.

That being said, though, I would never want it banned. I can eat it in moderation: I just wish I didn't have to.

While I wouldn't want any food banned, I would have to say the one item that has a tendency to break down my self control is french fries.

RAISINS. Not because they contribute to weight gain but because the buggers are so disgusting they do not need, under any circumstances, to grace us with their presence upon this earth.

I love raisins how can you hate raisins!!!!!!!!!! :P :)

Get rid of cereal also...can't imagine that I love my cereal Fiber One and stuff is how I get a good deal of my Fiber....

I'm not a fan of raisins, either. The only real oatmeal cookie has chocolate chips. I'm OK with raisin bran for breakfast now and then, but I never go out of my way to eat a raisin. In fact, I don't think I've eaten one in anything other than raisin bran in at least 20 years.

(If we're talking eliminating foods we hate, there is only one on the planet for me: mushrooms.)

If I go back over the past few years where I have put on 20lbs it seriously started Thanksgiving 2005.  I learned how to make Gravy from scratch!!!! So what does that mean..EVERY meal for several week had gravy and what meal with rice and taters is complete without gravy

So I can blame birth control, weaning, sitting on my a$$. The truh is Gravy several times a week has had a certain effect on my weight. 

GRAVY must be banished. It has no nutritional purpose, therefore Banned.

Any Hostess product... yuck. I don't eat them anymore anyway, and I have no urge to, but still. Banned.

Don't laugh.... pinto beans - in any form.  I love 'em.

I made a pot lastnight.  Today I pigged out on two huge bowls.  Almost my entire daily calorie allowance.  Admittedly, I put a little fatty meat in for flavoring. 

Ugh, just one? Peanut butter cap't crunch. I can mindlessly eat a huge box on just a few days.

Potato chips... if there is a bowl near me, I can't stop eating them it seems.  And they really are a nutritional 0!

Ban the potato chips!!!!

jenningermany - uh, yeah, I'm laughing at you... that's friggin great! That's my personal favourite so far.

Mine - avocado sushi, I have little self control when either avocados (high in fat devils) or sushi is around, you put them together and.... well.... I just won't stop.... ever. 

if i could ban  a food so i could lose weight it would be curly fries w/ ranch. they are a yummy enemy :( i miss u curly fries!

I hate to do it, but cheese, real yummy sharp cheddar. I can't even buy the stuff without it disappearing in seconds and me weeping at it's aftermath...
