Hi Jewels,

So nice to see you back and I am so glad everything went good with the wedding stuff

Brown/wholemeal bread is not fattening. White bread I wouldn't say is fattening, but it releases sugar in your blood very quickly which is bad. This means it makes you feel so much fuller, but for such a shorter time, in other words it makes you crave for even more. So yes, indirectly, white bread is fattening if you think there is a big quantity of sugar that is released in your bloodstream.
Not all people find bread bloatening (if there is such a word) just people that might be allergic to wheat/gluten.
I would say, give the white bread/rolls a skip and you don't have to feel guilty about eating it....

howzit doll

i have been having seeded loaf sarnie - it is delicious
it doesnt make me feel that bad (bloating) but it fills me up more than my salads
we shall see if i become a whale over night (altho that might be due to the biscuits that are in store now for xmas and i have been munching !!! Big Grin )
OK....The festive season is now over

What are you plans for getting back in to shape????? Oh I wish I hadnt bought that huge tin of Quality Street :wall:

I need some motivation pleeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaasssssssseeeeeeeeeee......got to stop eating all the rubbish.

I am thinking it is going to be easier to get back on track when I go back to work on Tuesday......

Hi Sue,

It is definitely better once you are at work. I am talking out of own experience :haha: When I am at home and have not much to do I find myself in the kitchen the most of the time.
(There is a fancy box of McVites biscuits under my bed but I will NOT give in).

For me it is just back to normal, eating healthy, cutting out a lot of carbs (or shall I say bad carbs) and dairy. Loads of fresh fruit and vegetables and loads of water.
I have also started exercising again, so hopefully in a few weeks all will be well and 'normal' again Wink
