Hi Supersize, just thought I'd add in my tuppence worth. Like you, one of my mega cravings during abstinence was bread in all its beautiful forms and I had in my head that lovely buttery toast was going to be my dream post-RtM food choice. BUT I've opted to avoid food that I know is not 'good' for me and that included bread. I did RtM exactly by the book and was able to assess foods that caused blood sugar swings or digestive problems really easily. I now avoid wheat, processed food and refined sugar. However it's really important that I know they aren't banned. I can have them if I want to but most of the time I choose not to as I know that they don't agree with me, for whatever reason. I strongly recommend a book called Eating Less by Gillian Riley to help you stay on track and focused on the overall aim, which, to me, isn't being thin but being healthy! I've now maintained a BMI of 21.5 since March. It's by no means easy and every day I have at least one little struggle with my urge to eat addictively, but by Heaven it's worth it! Best of luck,
Linze
