Dinah, can I make a suggestion?

Try to steer clear of stores that sell the wrong sort of foods. If you'd rather not, then make sure you avoid the aisles where the junk foods are concentrated. Avoid the areas in a mall where the concession fast food stands are located. If you don't go near those places, you're less likely to buy those foods & if you don't have them in your cupboards at home, you can't eat them, right?

Treat yourself to a bread machine if you don't know how to make bread or don't have the time. If you make your own bread & buns, you won't need to buy them. Once you get eating your own, you'll never want to eat store-bought again. And it'll very nicely satisfy your carb cravings while improving your diet at the same time.

I love my carbs & always have!!! But perhaps one of the reasons I don't gain weight from them is what's in them. I've always made my own breads (& now pastas) that have lots of protein in them. I include soy flour (50% protein!), milk, eggs, wheat germ, & extra gluten in almost all my breads. When I make pasta, I include eggs & soy flour too. I originally did so as a means of adding more protein to my diet when I was young & poor, & couldn't afford much high protein foods like meat, eggs, & cheese. Now I wouldn't go back.

Don't know if you still have my email addy, but if you want, you can email me & I'll send you a simple recipe for the bread. I don't use recipes when I cook but I can pay attention to how much I add when I make bread (today) & come up with the amounts for you.
