what food/drink can you not do without?

Unfortunately, I don't do well with artificial sweeteners so any 'diet' food with artificial sweetener in it is a no-go.

I'm with you on that. BLAH to artificial sweeteners. Sugar isn't actually so bad. A teaspoon of sugar only has 15 calories. To me, that's far better than polluting my system with chemicals. The trouble is, sugar is usually hidden in yummy fatty things like cake, chocolate, ice cream, etc. 

CARBS

Bacardi Rum 

Diet Coke.  It needs to stop.

Breads.  People who've gone carb-free are I-N-S-A-N-E!

Oh yeah!! DH thinks I'm nuts for buying french bread or any bread really and just eating it all by itself.  I love bread

Me too! I am addicted to it. I switched from caffeine diet coke to caffeine free diet coke without a hitch but diet coke is my coffee. I drink way too much of it and yes it is expensive over here so I am sure I would see a big difference in our grocery bill if I gave it up.

Rice, pasta, iced tea, cheesy puffs.... Cheesy poofs (I've recently discovered Wotsits) are my latest obsession and I could get a 10 pack and eat them in one go. I used to drink Coke, but I have cut all soda out of my diet because it pisses my skin off and I break out when I drink it.

I never realized how much we ate out and at fast food back in america, if you would have asked me 1 1/2 yrs ago what I couldnt live without, id have rattled off a list for ya, now that I reallly *cant* have ANY of these favourite restaurant foods, well i learned to live without it, actually im pretty sure that i have repressed feeling towards my precious restaurants, out of sight, never out of heart, jk!
now days i would have to say I couldnt live without the few restaurants that we do have tgifridays, subway, hard rock cafe. these are my treats.

the other thing is boring, but its fruit, i couldnt live without it. ever since i was pregnant i really crave it sometimes.
 

Coffee, red wine, really dark chocolate

Potatoes...they can be made into so many yummy things

cheese...mmmm...cheese

and chocolate...lots and lots of chocolate.

food i couldnt live without: extra, mature cheddar
drink i couldnt live without: cafe nero's double vanilla latte's
