How often do you eat such unhealthy food as: chips, aerated water? And in general how

Almost everybody knows that such food is harmful… But unfortunately we eat it anyway. As for me, it is tasty but I try to limit such food. So how often do you eat it?

First off note that I am trying to lose weight at the moment, not maintain. But, as a rule, I've been limiting myself to "bad" foods and or drinks (in smaller quantities than I used to eat) 1-2x a week. I'm currently 5'8, 187.5 pounds and have lost 22.5 pounds since Jan. I definitely find I can indulge here and there without hurting my progress.

Well I am one of the "lucky" ones because i can eat anything and it does not stick....Yes you can hate me for it if you want I am use to it

But I do try and limit the "bad food as much as I can. We use to eat bad foods regularly. Mainly because liike me my older three children can eat anything with no effects, unfortunatly my wife and youngest is not so lucky. SO last fall my wife started a low carb diet and has lost 50 lbs. When she first started the kids and I kept eating our usual food and she made herself something else. But I felt bad that we were not eating the same foods and that the bad foods would be to tempting for her to stay with the diet, so we have all but eliminated the bad foods. ( we still eat a bad treat every once and a while.

I wish you the best staying with your diet and improving your health.
