Realized I am more concerned about my carbohydrate addiction and growing desire to eat everything in sight at any hour, than about losing weight. Had been doing so much reading and comparisons about diets. So I pulled out an ancient paperback called The Carbohydrate Addict’s Diet by Drs. Heller. Was curious what had happened to them and learned that they retired from teaching a dieting program at Mt. Sinai, so they went on to be credentialed.
I tried my own twist on it this week to get revv’d up - no carbs until dinner and then for one hour, anything I want. No throwing out the “bad foods”, just restricting when I eat. Notice the absence of addiction almost immediately and the scale is my friend again. Am excited to see if the belly fat might be less noticeable for Christmas.
I had a list of must allows, as I love cooking and eating out. At 72 and 83, I and my husband are too old to give up much in the way of foods. I decided that whatever we attempted had to work with our habits and desires.
