I am struggling a bit with carbs so really trying hard to get it sorted out. I have put this pic (me at about 1 to 2 stone less than my heaviest and me in January this year at goal) on my screensaver to remind me of how far I have come in the hope that it will encourage me!

 

[chrisa]

WOW you have come an awful long way Jane. Looking really good carbs were always my down fall, used to love bread dont have it that often now, but enjoy, wraps,wb/ thins, crumpets, bagels,pitta bread, odd bit potato. If i have cereal for breakfast at work i try to have cucumber with pate then i dont need the bread or crackers etc, just bit fruit after it. Tea time usually have some carb but not always, but sometimes on an evening if i havent had a great dela to eta have slice of toast. I miss bread sometimes but know its no good for me really. xx

 

[Jane]

I think cutting out or at least cutting down on carbs has been one of the hardest bits, especially as I have been trying to increase my calories to maintain rather than keep losing. But I want to stay well within the normal bmi so am going to have to knuckle down again for a bit.

I can easily do without potatoes, rice pasta etc, its the bread I like! So far only had a banana so gives me lots of options for the rest of the day.

 

[Paula Garner]

Why don't you try swapping your normal bread for warburtons thins Jane? That way you can still have it, but reduce the carbs and calories?

 

[Paula Garner]

You look so different Jane! I understand exactly what you mean about bread - so for me it had to go! Permanently totally gone. I can manage all other things except for biscuits in moderation, but never bread lol.
