    I eat rice cakes (tomatoe & basil) I still eat my 3 toast in the morning, I choose bread with very lite calories , whole wheat 130cals for 2 slice

    You don't have to cut it out completely, but making it a weekly thing instead of a daily thing might help. Bread is pretty calorie dense and it can be hard to fit it into your diet every day and get enough protein and fat without exceeding your calorie limit, especially if your calorie goal isn't super high.

    Have you considered telling yourself that you can have, for example, 2 slices on Saturday mornings only?

    Buy bread you don't love as much. I actively avoid fresh bread for that reason. And log it before you eat it. Always log before you eat it... that way you can see clearly how it fits (or not) in your calories.

    Bread is my weakness too. I've had to totally give it up. And gluten free bread just doesn't cut it. With recetnly being diagnosed with Diabetes T2 I found that it really spikes my blood sugar. So, short of some simple pita pockets (by Ezekial) I haven't had any bread since New Years Day. Bread and potatoes, geez I miss them. Plus it has really helped my weight loss.
