what carb is tormenting you?

I decided not to eat potatoes or pasta b/c I have been eating them too much (i have no problem eating the other carbs in moderation so they r not restricted).  I gave up potatoes in my honeymoon period and it was the hardest thing I had to do. Now that I am trying to do that again, I am finding it just as hard. 

Had a steak last night and it was sooooo tempting to order the potato.  I was so proud of myself last night for not eating any potatoes.
  But they taste so good and they are EVERYWHERE.  I even start imagining that "they" are haunting me.  I can be shopping and people will turn into giant potatos...ahhh...stop the insanity! lol

I will not let the food of the gods have power over me! I will resist!! *watching

*deep breathe* Ok, I feel better.  Anyone being tormented by a specific treat that you want to stop eating?

I like potatoes in any style, but I can just eat a few bites along with my meat. My protein still fills me up so much especially if it's dense. My weakness is cake, cookies or any gooey type of pastry. I love to go to Panera Bread and pick out a Bear Claw and chase it with a nice hot cup of coffee. It seems that stuff never fills me up!

Doughnuts and similar pastries like those do seem to go down with ease...i stay away from them b/c of that fact.  I dont understand why it is easier to say no to some things but not others.

I knew this was going to be about potatoes..lol.  I remember you professing your love for them when I was down in Texas for my DS.  

Hang tough, Hayley.  You are stronger than they are!  And like you said, they're everywhere, so for a once in a while treat, they'll be easy to find :)

Thanks Tassia. There is still hope, I havent tried to bite any "potato people" yet. I might have sniffed a few though...lol

Depends on the TOM.  On a normal day, I can have a little bit of chocolate and then stop.  On the other days, I eat large, sickening amounts of the sweetest chocolate.  During this time, I also crave white flour, but it doesn't sit well in my stomach for the most part, so I have a little more control in that department.  I use Dreamfield's pasta usually, so when I crave "comfort" food, I eat that with lots of sauce/cheese/sausage etc.  It's really the chocolate that kills me every once in a while.

We do not have dreamfield pasta here.  The whole wheat is harder for me to eat then just normal white flour. Regardless, they r all the devil! lol

We didn't have it here, but I was a able to order it online.  It was pricey, but worth it.  I actually just tried  a pasta dish made from whole grain pasta, italian sausage, onions and asiago cheese.  The pasta is not sitting as well as I'd hoped.  Damn.

Looks like ur like me...it doesnt sit well with me either.  Doesnt satisfy the same way too. Maybe it is the texture? *shrug*

Any and all simple carbs call my name.   If i don't have them available or I don't eat them, they don't bother me.
