I think it started when I was about five and decided I wanted to make my own snacks, preferably when mom was NOT around. All I could reach was the bread on the kitchen counter and mayo on the bottom shelf of the refrigerator, so a mayo sandwich it would be. That is where the healthy snacking began.
That is the problem with this whole wanting to diet thing. My gene pool doesn't allow me the luxury of being able to eat anything I want and still stay a size 8 or under. So I usually have to cut back to lose a few pounds. Cutting back usually means depriving myself of my favorite treat...BREAD. So, needless to say, I have a hard time sticking to anything. I couldn't begin to tell you the last time I was a size 8!!! But the last time I had a good 'ol slice of bread with honey butter? Well, that was tonight.
ANYONE?! IS THERE A BREAD DIET OUT THERE?!!!
There are carrot diets. Cabbage diets. Meat and protein diets. Low fat diets.
HELLO?!!! This world would be a lot skinnier if someone would invent a GREAT tasting bread with NO CALORIES, LOW CARBS and NO FAT.
Anyone with me on this?
I guess you are wondering why I am rambling on and on about BREAD? We went to the local steakhouse with my in-laws, for my mother-in-law's birthday, tonight. I ordered a salad, a baked potato, and Filet Mignon. There was an onion blossom ordered as an appetizer and bread with honey butter was on the table.
I brought my camera, to not only take a few birthday shots of the family, but to take a picture of my yummy dinner. It was ALL wonderful and I ate EVERY bite on my plate. Now, ask me what I took a picture of...
Is there a counselor out there that specializes in BREAD therapy?
Have a GREAT weekend!

I am so with you on this one! I could definitely eat only bread and be so happy :) Oh size 8......such a faint memory of long ago. Haha!
Sis,
I can think of one scripture that immediately comes to mind. "Thou shalt not live by bread alone." And I'm sure it didn't exactly mean bread plus something is best, in the context. Context, of course, was physical food vs spiritual food. Nevertheless, we could say a healthy balance of bread and other food groups is all important. I haven't helped you in your delimma - just to say you get it naturally. I well remember my mother's fresh baked bread aroma wafting through the house. Oops, now I'm hungry for it! Sorry.

It must run in the family!
Nothing better than fresh baked bread!
If you find the solution, let me know. My rice cakes just aren't cuttin' it!
LOL! I am not a huge bread eater, but I can understand on the flip side as I am a huge chocolate lover and when I have to cut back chocolate is where I have to be oh, so careful. I think I could eat my weight in it. lol
Look what I found!
