Cheese, sweets, butter and bread- just cold turkey. As many here already know about me and sweets, the same proved to be true for the rest.
Just said enough is enough (plus my cholesterol jumped 30 points).
As with sweets, the first week to 10 days are the hardest. I obsess about them. The craving is like what I imagine the jonesing for dope is to an addict newly in recovery.
After the days pass, I stop caring about eating any of it. I did unconsciously pick up a loaf of bread @ the store yesterday. Did not even "see" it in my cart till the checkout line!
Asked the cashier to please take it from me as I was allergic to it. Now I could have kidded myself but then I would have had to buy butter and on and on-back on the merry-go-round I would have been.
