MMM, bread. I used to love bread. Never knew it could be oven fried? Hmm, interesting. Great job on the loss. Just think of how much more that could have been had you not eaten the bread. I know it's hard sometimes but we all have to learn to find other things that will satisfy our desires w/o sacrificing our weight loss.  

I love bread too but it doesn't love me. We went to a big Wal-Mart over the weekend and they have a Subway inside. OMG the bread baking was enough to make your mouth water! 

kmartin Yes I wonder how much it would have been - but it was bread - or nothing! I did load up on an entire chicken one day - much to the horror of the group who kept pointing out (rather rudely) that they thought I was on a diet. No, I said, a new eating plan that involved entire chickens! No more bread though until I hit my target weight and then in moderation. 

I know it's hard. I don't know if I could have gone without eating it. It's much easier to say you shouldn't eat it than actually not eating it. I love the entire chicken WOE though.  

kazredhead, when people point out to me that my diet doesn't seem to be much of a diet, and that "Boy, you sure eat a lot of food for being on a diet", I ask them how their's is going. And then point out that on my "diet" I have lost 50 pounds since January. That usually shuts them up!! 

@ctliss - love that put down @kmartin - yup eating an entire chicken was a bit of a treat (and when I told them tonight how much I had lost they nearly fainted (me too!) I did eat some bread though so I wasn't a total saint! Tonight has been a nightmare. Hubby's boss asked us over for dinner - Gaspacho (er no), pasta with vegetables (er no), fruit for dessert (er no). So I ate a bit of soup and pasta and am praying for a good day tomorrow. Fingers crossed everyone.
