I just found this thread, and it's old, but I am answering the question anyway...

I love:
full-fat salad dressing, cream cheese, sour cream, and mayonaisse
cooking my hamburgers and steaks in butter and not feeling bad about it
sauteeing veggies in olive oil to add flavor and FAT!!
BACON, BACON, BACON - I LOVE BACON!
CHEESE, CHEESE, CHEESE - I LOVE CHEESE!

And now that I have visited the HFS, I love Maggie's Cereal, and I love the SF syrups that I can add to the cereal to make it taste better than my instant oatmeal ever did! And I love my water with ACV!

In a non-food way, I love that the arthritis pain in my knees disappears when I am on a LC WOE. I also love having clothes that haven't fit in a long time "suddenly" fit just fine again!

I LOVE---eating Almonds, Big Juicy Hamburgers, Ranch Dip, Full fat salad dressing, Dill Pickles, fresh veggies, heck, I love eating--I miss donuts and ice cream, but not enough to even buy one to eat when no one would see it happen! The one thing I will buy someday down the road (have to find the restaurant first) is a Cinnabon cinnamon roll. I love those and that is going to be my one major cheat if I ever see one again! When we were in Germany the last 7 years there were three bases taht when we went to them we bought a box of 4 fresh hot cinnabons! two caramel for dh and 2 regular ones for me and dd. I couldn't finish one then so no way will I manage one now! But that is what I am saving my "major carbs and calories indulgence" for. Likely as not I won't even like it as so many things taste too sweet to me now but I will try it and will likely eat most of it--jsut because, but it will likely cure my desire for it again too!

Great big giant cheeseburgers with grilled onion and coleslaw dumped on top of it all!

Feta cheese on everything, or by itself!

Cream instead of skim milk! Hahahaha!

Salads with real dressing and bacon crumbled on top!

It's all too yummy!

STEAK!!!!! :fork:
cream
butter
juicy, guilt-free, cheeseburgers and occasional hot dogs
big ol' chef salads with ranch dressing, none of that low-fat crap!
big ol' grilled steak and chicken salads w/ranch, who needs fries!!!
anything, done on the grill
cream cheese and peanut butter in my celery
roast chicken with a nice browned crispy skin
roast beef with buttered garlic green beans
deviled eggs
h.b. eggs
leftovers
did I mention...STEAK!!??!!

energy I haven't seen since my teen years
scoring from first base in a softball game and not feeling the least bit winded
playing tennis tirelessly
not craving in the least bit the twice-baked potatoes I made for BF's family the other night
having tons of fun, chasing BF's toddler around, without tiring
my fellow fauxtatoes, who keep me motivated
speaking of BF...and energy...well, you get the idea

my favorites are a lot of the above, but I just now found for the first time, some low carb tortilla's, and I made some low carb enchaladas last nite, and today I used them as 'bread' and put roast beef in them and sprinkled some shredded mexican 4 cheese on it, a little mayo, and it was wonderful! I think they are gona be my all time favorite thing.. and the ones I found are lower in carbs then natures own low carb bread! I can picture an "egg and bacon, or sausage" sandwich made with one for breakfast. Yummy!

What a neat thread this is! Reminds me a bit of a "gratitude journal"...

Let's see...my favorite things are:

...doing just about anything with my husband as he's truly my best friend!
...just about any new adventure!
...visiting with family and friends
...a walk in the mountains when the weather is cool
...when my students get excited about learning!
...and when the lightbulb goes on (again, my students!)
...being on this WOL and knowing how great I feel! :jump:
and way, way too many more to list!!!

Love this thread!

My favorites - butter, real cheese (not chewy, cardboard (higher calorie!) crap passed off as fat free or low fat) real cream in my coffee (which I have been steaming lately - yum!) and pecans!

Good grief! I can't think of anything else for this wonderful list. The responses so far have made me realize even more that I'm actually kinda lucky to be so sugar-sensitive!
The stuff I'm SUPPOSED to eat is wonderful! Steak w/butter, broccoli with real cheese, fresh salads with REAL full fat dressings and eggs and bacon/ham on them, yummy berries, and my version of cheesecake: nuts for crust and Splenda to sweeten. Wow! This is a fun, "tasteful" topic!

I love eating bacon, steak and cheese crispies...

I would never have known I was such a salad buff if not for LC eating. Now, I enjoy making different salad variations with different salad dressings. My favorite salad dressing is Caesar and Blue Cheese! WooHoo!!!
