Starting in October, I fell off the wagon big-time. I gained 10 pounds in 6-weeks. I didn't realize it because I had stopped weighing every day (bad move for me) until my jeans got tight.

What did I start eating again?

No pies, cakes or cookies with sugar or flour. As much of a sweet tooth as I have, I don't really miss them and if I have an urge, I can have an Atkins bar for 120 calories and 2 net carbs.

I simply started to eat bread and rolls again.

I really, really, missed them.

I have made bread substitutes but to me, they are not the same. I did get some awesome low carb angel rolls from Amazon once, from a company called LC but they are expensive.

I have to work out my bread addiction on a more permanent basis.

I am on the no-bread train again and that will mean no stuffing in my turkey for me and I am going through withdrawal, but the craving is decreasing.

I saw a new specialist this week and what does he say to me?

"A low carb eating plan would be best for you. Do you know how to do that?".

Duh.
