it's the bread that I can't live without...

[missdduke]

am trying to just diet myself, have done a million diets and I KNOW what to eat.

However, cutting out bread is proving to be impossible. I always have toast and a coffee for breakfast (i love breakfast, can't function without it) and cereal and coffee just doesn't work for me!

Then when I come in from being out and about all day with kids I'm just starving so what can I have...piece of toast!

I've tried to stop with the bread but just end up having bagels or WW pitta breads.

Is one bagel a day really bad? If all the rest of my food is low fat/protein.

Have decided life's not worth living if there's no bread based products in it!

Anyone else out there a bread addict?

I have WeightWatchers bread and that helps! Bagels are pretty calorific but instead of toast I now have a crumpet - they fill me up more than toast and have about the same calories.

Besides, I hate all this nonsense about cutting out bread/carbs/whatever. FGS, you can eat whatever you like as long as the calories are limited! Your body doesn't know whether it's getting 100 calories of bread or 100 calories of banana!

So don't worry - you needn't give up your bread

try oatcakes, especially the cheese flavour ones, they are divine.

Protein at breakfast will fill you up for longer than a piece of toast will by itself. what about scrambled egg on granary toast?
