Bread

I've been pretending to myself that I'm on a low carb diet for the last three weeks. But I start every day with cereal, have pasta a few times a week, wine and the odd bag of crisps. Still, I've managed to lose 6lb. The one thing I haven't touched even once is bread. Was chatting to someone today who told me he'd lost 35lb in the last 6 months just by cutting out bread from his diet. And he's not fat.

Is bread a massive weight gain trigger? Is it the yeast? I feel much better for not touching it, and best of all I haven't had any carb cravings or that horrible insatiable snacking that normally happens in the evening. It just hasn't occurred to me to think about food.

Just wondered if anyone knows much about bread and it's part in overeating.

read wheat belly... its the wheat, and you have cut back in your consumption of it.

Thank you, Forever. I was trying to google stuff but didn't find much about bread. Didn't think to google wheat.
