The hardest food for me to give up would have to be Dove Chocolates. They're my weakness, and I always keep a supply. The hardest technology for me to do without would probably be my cell phone. I can't imagine life without one. I'm not one of those girls that sends text messages 24/7, but I'd still feel disconnected without it.

The Hardest technology to give up would be my laptop because I rely on it do complete all my school work. I am on it 24/7. There is no way I can complete graduate school without it!
The hardest food for me to give up would have to be My M&M's. I keep a giant bag of them next to my laptop so that while I am doing my school work I can nibble on them. They are always handy. There are days that they are the only thing I eat because I have too much work to get off the computer!

The unhealthy food hardest for me to give up would be ice cream. I eat ice cream every day and I'm pretty much addicted to it. I mix almost EVERYTHING with ice cream (i.e. Oreos, brownies, Rice Krispy Treats, etc,). The technology that would be hardest for me to give up would definitely be my laptop. It has my life in it: all my writings, my school work, etc.
Thanks for the giveaway!

The hardest piece of modern technology for me to live without is my ipod.
It's pratically in my ears 24/7.I don't think I could live without it. Okay I'm being dramatic
but I love my ipod! It's like a place I can retreat to when my mom's shouting at me!
The hardest food for me to give up two weeks ago would have been nutella (I ate way too much
of that stuff !) now it's probably mini pancakes, which aren't THAT unhealthy, just I eat them
in vast quantities. Perferably with nutella on them, but whatever.
If I had to life without the above, I would go crazy, well crazier then I already am.

The hardest food for me to give up would definitely be coffee. Not really sure if this counts as a "food" or it it's totally unhealthy (though I'm pretty sure it's a little unhealthy at least) but it is definitely something hard to give up. Technology I could not do without would be my cell phone. I'm pretty sure if I gave up using my phone, my friends and parents would think I'd been kidnapped or something crazy like that.

The hardest food for me to give up would be chips & dip. I snack on them every single day after school.
The hardest technology for me to give up would be TV. I watch TV ALL the time. How could I survive without all the good looking male characters to look at!

I'm from Brazil, and here we eat a LOT - LOT! - of rice. So, that would be the hardest one for me. I mean, meat without rice? Chicken without rice? It's almost like... Well, I can't even imagine it! Besides, rice has a lot of fat, unfortunately :(
The hardest technology would be my iPod, which contains my music (oh, MUSIC!), my books (yes, I like hiding them on something that will always be near me), and movies. I'm always listening to iPod, is such a great thing to do when you want to ignore the rest of the world! (or, should I say, always?)

The hardest technology would be my laptop. I am constantly either writing or going on the Internet. Oh, and watching TV. Basically I spend way too much time on the computer :D

The food that would be the hardest for me to give up is French Vanilla ice cream with brownies, coconut, and caramel from Cold Stone. I'm addicted to this ice cream. I travel a good 70 blocks from where i live to get it.
The technology that would be hardest for me to give up would be my mac laptop, simply because it is my life. It has all my pictures, word documents, i need it for homework, for my music, to look for books, to catch up on the tv shows i missed, to type of my stories, to chat with my friends online... I would be lost and confused without my laptop; who i named Duchess.

The hardest food for me to give up would be eggs. And no one lie. I know everyone secretly loves eggs but on the outside go, "Eww. Diaryy.. Fat." LIES. I love eggs and so does the whole world. (...they just don't all know it yet.) Fried, boiled, scrambled, omelets. If it's made out of eggs, I will eat it. I used to go through an orange obsession a while back. But I've always been into eggs. So every now and then I get absolutely terrified that my egg obsession will just end one day, just like with the oranges, and I'll pick up something weird like celery. But it hasn't happened yet. And I would be really mad. I, honest to god, have eggs at least twice a day. Usually in the morning and lunch. (Because school doesn't sell anything with eggs. (School's just horrible that way.) But no, yeah. Eggs forever. :heartbeat:
A technology I couldn't live without would be my laptop. Why? I mean, come on. I can go on hulu and catch up on White Collar, and SVU. And House. And then there's the godly YouTube with amazing music. Not to mention that without Word, I don't know how I would continue on living. Sometimes I'll just open it up just because I like seeing words appear in front of me. It's soothing. How can anyone live without a computer? ): Music, friends, (FB stalking), Word, and television. Could anything better ever be invented?

The hardest thing for me to give up would be chocolate. We have this saying in my family that you really aren't a member of our family unless you like chocolate. My mother constantly has it in the house and I (being the foolish teen I was) went looking for it one day. She has yet to change the hiding spot, which means constant availability of chocolate. Though dark chocolate is supposedly good for you in moderation, I definitely would need to work on the "moderation" part of it.
Internet would be the hardest technology to give up. I talk to many of my friends who I don't see at school online. Relatives who have moved to other states and far away from our home town update me on their situations via the internet. It'd be extremely hard not knowing what is going on. Also, research would be a LOT harder without the internet for easy access. Not having internet would make me write more however. I'm not completely dependent on the internet, but it is in my daily routine. I can't even begin to imagine how much I would get done without it (I would get a ton of things done without that distraction.)

And my Ipod would be VERY hard to give up since my ipod is my life. Music, camera...everything I love..it has it, so I cant bear to give mine up.

i could not live with out chocolate of any kind. The little squares, the brownies,cookies, in my ice cream, or on me (my cocoa butter). I would also be lost in this world with out the computer, or,the internet. With no cellular device or cable of any kind,i am left with the interent as my sole connection to the outside world (or facebook, youtube, my email all my forums i'm a member of, music,... it goes on and on)

The hardest food for me to give up, besides my beverage of choice (Diet Dr Pepper), would probably be ice cream. While I don't have it often, I do love it. The most difficult technology for me to give up would be cars or other transportation. I'd love to say the internet, but when I think of walking everywhere I get a little twitchy, so... transportation it is!

The hardest unhealthy food for me to give up would have to be hot buffalo wing pretzels. I absolutely love them and eat them almost everyday, depending on whether or not I have any left :D They are bursting with flavor and are SO addicting. My brother also loves them and I have to fight him for the bag. However, I always win ;)
The hardest piece of technology for me to give up is my kindle. I know it's not the normal thing to be devastated to give up, but I LOVE to read. A book per week is my usual time span. Unless the book is really good, then I usually stay up extremely late trying to read as much as possible. Now don't get me wrong, I love reading books made from paper. I love the feel of the book and I know the EXACTLY what a certain book smells like. However, I hate having to wait until my parents drive me to either the bookstore or the library. So, without my kindle I would have some serious depression issues.

The hardest food for me to give up would be doughnuts - the kind with the chocolate frosting and the white blob of heaven in the middle. Mmmm. And the hardest technology to give up? Is a toilet considered technology? Probably not. But that would be hard to give up. Really, I guess I couldn't do without the Internet and all that comes with it: e-mail, Google, Facebook...

The hardest food for me to give up would probably be cheese. Perfect on any thing from vegetables to cake(mascarpone, ricotta ). Without cheese I would be an empty forlorn cracker box shell of a person forever searching for a sharp cheddar or a garlicky boursin to make me whole. Also a stack of cheese and crackers is the perfect snack to keep ones energy up while reading all day.
My addiction to blogs of all sorts would make the internet the hardest thing for me to give up. When I don't have a book I can always count on a blog to give me some reading material for at least an hour or so.

I think the hardest food for me to give up are these sugar cookies I get everyday from the bakery aroung the corner from my house. Since I have been eating some everyday since I was a little girl, I can't actually imagine what it would be like without them.
The hardest technological object for me to give us is my gameboy, just because it tends to help me unwind after a long day of school.

The hardest food for me to give up would be fried anything. I've tried before and have not had any success. So far. I must try again.
As for the hardest technology for me to give up, it would have to be my computer and high speed internet. I use it to watch TV, instructional videos, and for staying in touch with family and friends.

The unhealthy food (though it's not exactly a food) that would be most difficult for me to give up would most definitely be Diet Coke. For the longest time, I told myself that "It has zero calories! It's good for me!" But that couldn't be farther from the truth. It has all sorts of awful chemicals and fake sugars. Ick. But I'm totally addicted. I literally can't go a day without drinking at least one glass of Diet Coke. My friends at college are all giving me crap because I drink so much pop (not to mention the crap I get for calling it pop instead of soda) and keep trying to get me to stop drinking it. It's just sooo refreshing.
The technology that would be the most difficult for me to give up would be the computer/internet. A lot of people would probably answer cell phone, but I often go a day without texting or calling a single person. The internet, on the other hand, I use constantly. Between streaming music, watching youtube videos, talking to my friends on facebook, the majority of my day is spent at the computer. It makes me sick to think about how much more I would get accomplished if I spent all the time I spend on facebook daily studying instead.

The hardest food I would have to give up would be bread. It might not sound unhealthy but when you can sit down and eat an entire loaf of french bread and not realize it until the bread is all gone, then it's a BIG problem. I love bread. All types, italian bread, french bread, white, wheat, Panera is a favorite. I could live off of it, so it would defiantly be the hardest thing to give up. I also love smothering bread with Alouette garlic and herb cheese......yummmm.
The hardest technology to give up would be the internet. I rely on it so much; to keep in contact with others, do school work/research, to keep up to date on world events and pop culture, find out when a new book is coming out ;). The internet is just something that has become an every day part of life and it would be odd not to have use of it anymore.

I think that the unhealthy food that would be hardest for me to give up would be bread. White bread- a ton of calories, and completely addicting. I eat an insane amount of starch every day (since I'm a vegetarian, I eat a lots of pasta, bread, etc) even though it's so bad for me. Currently, I'm addicted to sourdough bread, which I toast and then put butter on. Mmmm it's so good! It would be very difficult for me to completely cut out, or even significantly decrease the amount of bread I eat.
The hardest technology for me to live without would actually be a car I think. I don't really remember what it was like living without a computer since by the time I was born, PCs did exist, but sometimes I actually wish computers didn't exist. I waste HOURS on the computer when I should be doing my homework and my back always aches after getting off of the computer. A car though, I literally cannot imagine life without a car. I live in a very cold part of the U.S. I am used to being driven around all the time in the winter; I don't know if I'd be able to handle walking everywhere in the freezing cold. Cars are so convenient! My family has taken long road trips in our car- it's become a staple to American life because it's so useful for transportation. Now, the fact that I am so reliant on a car, as opposed to in Europe where they are much less reliant on cars, is another debate entirely.

I would have a very difficult time giving up the sugar cookies my aunt makes. They are absolutely divine. She only makes them on certain holidays so they are a rare commodity. We recently celebrated Kansas day by eating Kansas shaped cookies. Nothing says state pride like eating a cookie replica of your state.
My computer is invaluable to me. I use it to communicate with my friends now that we are in different parts of the world. It also allows me to do my school work, watch movies, and listen to music. My computer fulfills my shopping and internet gossip needs as well. I would be quite lost without it.

The food it would be hardest for me to give up is definitely peanut butter. I don't know why, but I absolutely adore that stuff. If it's in the house, I inevitably find myself taking huge spoonfuls of it and drizzling them with honey. :blush:
As for technology, I don't think I could survive without air conditioning. I don't know if that's what you meant, but it seems like the kind of technological advance we take for granted. For houses on the coast (like my mom's), a fan works just fine. But everywhere else? Not so much. Could you imagine living in 90 degree with weather with absolutely no hope of escape? :wacko:

My hardest food to give up has been anything with Lactose in it. I have recently developed an alergy to Lactose and break out in hives when ever I eat cheese or any dairy. I am very stubborn and will sometimes eat it and know i will have an allergic reaction to it.
I think the technology that I would have the most difficulty not using would be the internet. I am on the internet about 80 % of the time im awake. its so useful when looknig things up. I would hate to have to go to a library and read for the information I want. It is so much easier to hit CTRL + F to find the word and read that section around it.

The hardest unhealthy thing I'd give up to become healthy would probably be milkybar yogurts - strange, I know, but I'm not even kidding, they are like crack for people with sweet tooths. I live on these babies.
As for the technology, I could not live without my iPhone; the thought of losing my music, internet, and ibooks would destroy me, literally. Besides, Tap Tap Revenge is my therapy for stress.

The hardest food for me to give up would probably be bacon :P ( ya gotta love the bacon;) )
And the hardest electronic for me to do without would be my iPhone. :D

The hardest food for me to give up would be cheese! It's not realy bad for you in moderation but my family eats a lot of it. It's just so yummy and makes most food it's put on just taste better!
I'm inseperable from the computer and internet. It's made research and game playing so much faster and funner. I'd hate to have to go to the library in the next town over just to look something up in a recent encyclopedia. And also I couldn't keep up as easily on my celeb gossip! (This is all assuming we still have indoor plumbing, God, I would die without out clean running water and a sewage system.)

The hardest food for me to give up in order to be healthy would probably dark chocolate. I would probably constantly slip using the excuse that that dark chocolate has anti-oxidants and therefore its healthy to avoid consuming it. Wait, I do that everyday. As for technology, it would probably be modern plumbing. I can't stand going camping because of the lack of proper toilets and if people weren't able to bathe on a regular basis I think I die from the odors that me and my fellow men were emulating due to improper hygiene.

Food- Okay, I would absolutely have a very hard time, with out vanilla ice-cream.
I love vanilla ice-cream. I don’t really like any other flavors much, except for vanilla.
Technology- internet. I live for the internet. (Well I guess that’s not true.) I stay up until seven in the morning on the internet.
I would cry for a whole night if internet assess of the computer was taken away from me.
Who invented this addictive thing they call a computer?
Was it Bill Gates? Because if I ever see him… *Evil laughs*

For me Chocolate would be SO Hard to give up....its the sweetest thing in the world! And that thought of not tasting that oerfect sweetness again would be UNIMAGINABLE!! Its bliss, its everythings, its...perfection! DEF hard to give up!
And whoever heard of not having an Ipod? I LOve mine. Camera, mmusic..it has it ALL. I mean, without listening to it, my day is NEVER complete...so I would cry tears of a crocodile if I lost mine!!!

I think the hardest food for me to give up would be ice cream. Not any particular flavor, just...ice cream in general. Allow me to explain. I currently attend the University of Connecticut, a great school with reasonable-ish tuition, conveniently located in the middle of nowhere. Our campus is a lone oasis of civilization in an endless void of farmland. The pastures surrounding the school harbor an unknown population of cows. The cows mostly just roam about, doing cow things, not really bothering anyone (with the exception of the kids whose windows face the pastures. The smell can be a bit overwhelming). However, no one wants to see the cows leave, for without them, UConn would be shaken from its very foundation. You see, these cows are an integral part of our college experience; they are the first step in producing the very best ice cream known to mankind. Ice cream is made right at the University, and as such, is sold or given away at every possible school-sponsored event, eventually culminating in the one-ton sundae party.

In short, UConn is nothing without its fabulous ice cream, and I probably would have to transfer schools if I were forced to give it up.
As for technology, I'm not even sure I would technically exist without my laptop. Without it I would have no access to assignments, work schedules, bills, job opportunities, and research-related documents. More importantly, I would have to go without checking Facebook, PassiveAggressiveNotes.com, and AwkwardFamilyPhotos.com, among others. I would then be forced to find some other method of procrastination, which would no doubt annoy my roommates and neighbors. Yodeling, perhaps. Or possibly taxidermy.

The hardest food to give up, for me, would have to be pizza. I eat pizza at least 4 times a week. I never get tired of eating pizza and I wish I could eat it every day.
The hardest technology to give up is the internet. I would say tv because I watch TONS of tv, but the internet allows me to watch my favorite tv shows and do other fun things.

The hardest food for me to give up would be cheese. I just recently got off a raw food detox. I hadn't had any meat, cheese, or dairy for two whole weeks. It was gruesome and I missed cheese so much. My first bite of it afterward was a little piece of heaven. I wouldn't want to live without it again.
The hardest technology to give up would be the computer/internet. As a college student, I am required to do tons of research, for writing papers...so I use the computer and the internet regularly. I would feel so limited without it.

The winners will be chosen from here! So answer these two VERY difficult questions below:
What would be the hardest food for you to give up (in order to get healthy), and what would be the hardest technology for you to do without (such as TV, cell phone, Internet, cars, etc)?
For me: Chocolate chip cookie dough (although breaking the diet soda addiction was definitely worst) and the Internet! (Although makeup would be hard for me to give up, too.)
You have five days from now to post! We'll let you know who the winners are, and then how to submit your addresses to get your prizes!
Read Fat Cat! You’ll love it!
