for heavens sake, I STILL EAT BREAD AND LOSE WEIGHT!

I heart carbs. I eat heaping bowls of pasta 2-3 times a week.

I keep it under my calories and it's never been a problem.

Unless you have PCOS or some other problem processing food there's no reason to go low carb. Cutting out whole food groups is just fad dieting.

I eat around 300 g of carbs daily...

Whats crazy is I eat Unicorn almost everyday and have not gain an ounce of weight

I literally eat anything I want...... in moderation! And YES...... that includes bread. I've lost 27 lbs. including bread. It can be done! Take away all my carbs..... and you really don't want to be around me! :grumble:

I fix myself a breakfast sandwich every morning with Arnold's Whole Wheat Sandwich Thins... high fiber/ high protein. I use egg beaters, honey ham and low fat cheese.

I do cut back on carbs but that's because I was eating way too many carbs before. I use brown rice, whole wheat pasta, whole grain/whole wheat breads, etc. It's all in moderation.

Still eat bread. Still eat processed food. Still eat junk. I just don't eat as much of it as I used to.

I'm a carb addict, so the carbs ain't going anywhere. . .

If I could eat bread i would but have coeliac so allergic to gluten but I eat plenty of rice and other carbs. They are the ones that make me feel fuller for longer.

i eat carbs! Ive lost 73 pounds. Actually i tried doing the low carb thing for about a month and i hated it. I was tired and i was grumpy. I just focus on portion size and getting a variety of different foods and i feel great. I love carbs and i know i couldnt cut carbs out for good so low carb isnt for me.

I told my GP at my baby's 1 year check up about my diet. She goes, "I hope you're not doing a fad diet." I tell her about MFP. She says "Oh, that's a relief. There's nothing worse then those no or low-carb diets!" Then she touted the benefits of adding weights to my exercise routine. IMHO, this lady knows her stuff.

I'm a carb addict, so the carbs ain't going anywhere. . .

DITTO :flowerforyou:

i've lost 9lbs in April & i have been eating whole wheat/grain breads & brown rice.

dont need to cut out a food completely from your diet, just eat it in moderation.

My current favorite bread is a swiss multi grain made by nature's pride. On rest days, I'll usually go with a toasted bagel thin though for my sandwich.

I Carbs too, my nutritionist tried to put me on a low carb diet once and didn't work lol
I have lost 22 lbs since January and eat bread, fruit, rice, pasta, oats, milk, homemade yogurt, and I even bake cake, brownies and cupcakes sometimes :-)

I eat carbs every day. I love Multi Grain bagels and breads. Eat them daily but watch that they stay within my calorie allotment. Adore pasta, rice and other "white carbs." Still enjoy these in moderation. I have cut way back on the high sugar fruits that I love, but still eat them once or twice a week.

I have had to cut out candy. Still miss it, but this is a small thing to give up. Will still indulge around Easter and Christmas and Valentine's Day. But a regular habit of munching on M&Ms, Good & Plenty, Hershey's kisses, etc... no more.

Still love Starbucks but my order has changed. No more Cranberry/ Orange scones. Do I miss these? Yes. But again, a small sacrifice for maintaining at 133-138 for almost a year.

You should eat what you like (unless you have dietary restrictions for health reasons), but think out each thing you eat and decide if it is worth it and if it works for YOU.
