Doing well eating less carbs...especially bready-type carbs. I do have a glass of milk or a yogurt, and of course, an occasional beer, but mostly I eat vegetable carbs, which I love anyway...I could live on salads and protein! I focus on what I can have, rather than what I cannot.
There is an Oriental buffet that we frequent, that has fabulous grilled chicken sticks, a nice salad bar with daikon radishes, pickled ginger, and an array of meat and vegetable dishes that are more satisfying than all the rice or noodles in China...So I fill up an all the wonderful low carb treats and am not even tempted by the dessert table.
As time goes by, when I start to want something like macaroni and cheese...I will have it. Oatmeal porridge or other carb dense food, I usually "go with it" and see how I feel or see how my cravings are affected...I have not really eliminated any one food group...I just alter my eating to the seasons as well. Who could pass up watermelon in July? So, I usually switch to more watchful calories in the summer months....It's all give and take...
Have a good weekend everyone!
