To eat every carb in sight

I’m literally obsessed with carbs at the moment - could it be the change in the weather?

I certainly don’t need to put on any weight to get thorough winter but here I am shovelling them in !!

Oh well, diet starts Monday …

Same here. Keep shovelling.

Carbs are humans reason for living

I am too, I’m pregnant and all I want is bread-based meals 😂

HalloHello · 07/11/2021 17:13

I missed lunch today so for tea I'm having lasagne, garlic bread and sweet potato fries... Also had a few crisps with my wine...

I concur. 🐷🤣

I really want a Chinese tonight but I'm broke.
I can't even afford fuel for my car.

Dammit!

I've got enough roast potatoes in the oven to sink a battleship,
along with a jug full of batter for Yorkshire puddings.
Sometimes you just have to go with it.

Just ate my own body weight in mash 😀😀😀

Ihopeyourcakeisshit · 07/11/2021 17:25

I do that with lasagne.

Youdoyoutoday · 07/11/2021 17:26

I'm shovelling today too but I'm due on and always have a ravenous day beforehand.

Defo can't miss bootcamp!

Craving the cheddar and jalepeno fresh baked bread from Tesco. I want a massive doorstep slice slathered with butter and a slice of mexicana cheese on it.

Alittlenonsensenowandthen · 07/11/2021 17:52

Yup, been successfully doing low carb type diet. All easy up until last week when it got colder. How I just want wine, crisps, potatoes and piles of creamy pasta!

MusingOnStarlight · 07/11/2021 17:57

I was debating starting low carb tomorrrow. Then I remembered that I’m hungry and cold

I have recently discovered the joy of a hash brown sandwich with melted cheese and brown sauce.

To counteract the effect I may need to hibernate and live off body fat until March 2022.

Greentime101 · 07/11/2021 18:14

Oh my goodness this is just giving me inspiration!!!

You win this year's carb fest.
OccultGnuAsWell · 07/11/2021 19:01

Hence the hibernation plans!

spookysoul · 07/11/2021 19:01

Potato waffle sandwich with cheese also works.
I’m having chicken burgers tonight, cannot wait for that delicious bread meat and cheese combo 😂

KT727 · 07/11/2021 19:04

Me too! I just scoffed down a big bag of Tyrell's crisps as a starter before my take-away pizza (which is a rare treat).

VladmirsPoutine · 07/11/2021 19:10

I'm saving myself for Xmas.

KurtWilde · 07/11/2021 19:14

Bread, bread and more bread. Any kind really. And crisps. All the crisps. I'm putting it down to the weather and dark evenings.

A580Hojas · 07/11/2021 19:16

Apparently if you go Keto you never crave another carb in your life Hmm.

Babdoc · 07/11/2021 19:17

I am usually fairly restrained, but it is definitely the start of hot buttered crumpets season…Grin
