    When I started I thought bread would be the hardest thing to say no to but it was surprisingly easy. Ice cream is another thing entirely!

    Hi Yolanda, I love bread and pasta too! But it is getting easier for me to find satisfaction in other foods. I am never hungry eating this way and that helps control the cravings. Good luck, you can do it.

    You can have your bread (and ice cream) and eat it too. Even pasta. Just a different kind.

    Welcome Yolanda! I was a bread (and sugar) addict through and through but I don't miss them at all now. It happened incredibly fast and I'm still stunned by that! I hope that happens for your too. I'm pretty sure it will actually ;) Stay true to your beliefs and give them a fair go *hugs*

    For me, the best tool to handle adjusting and/or any cravings is to jump up my fat and my sodium. So far, it has been the cure to almost all my ills... Best of luck to you.
