But bread is sooooooo good! Hubby and I started an Atkins type diet a month before Thanksgiving. The weight drops off almost immediately, but lack of discipline during holidays packs those pounds right back on. And then there’s the food at a restaurant we found last week.

Low carb diets work if you stay disciplined. We began again today. lol (after having dulce de leche cheesecake for the past two days. that is some good stuff!)

Bread is only sooooooo good while you are in the throes of it, and feel the cravings. Go off grains for a week and you will be able to forgo bread. It no longer interests me, and I used to adore it.

Oh, and cheesecake? Just don’t eat the bottom crust, and you can enjoy a few bites now and then = it’s full rich fat (though of course there is sugar in it too). I had a piece of cheesecake last week because it doesn’t have any grains - as long as you avoid the crust at the bottom!
