Breaditations (Day 23 of 83)

That's awesome! I love that not only are you managing your bread intake, but you're also managing the actual bread! For me, I love rice, WHITE rice. I've tried to give it up numerous times and tried to switch to brown rice, which I hate. I've lasted a couple weeks at most. Even when I wasn't eating rice, I felt like I was eating around the craving. Now, I eat it at dinner, sometimes breakfast on the weekends, and measure it before putting it on my plate. Once it's gone, it's gone, but I'll be able to eat it again tomorrow, so no problem!

I love white rice/hate brown rice, too! Oh, my carb babies... :)I just got a better food scale than the one I used to use, so I'll be measuring out my rice, too!

Have you read about cooking the rice the day before and refrigerating it? I think if I remember correctly it does some kind of major change that is positive for health/weight. Here's a link to a Washington Post article, and the article itself has MORE interesting, food related links. Have a GREAT day!!! https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/wonk/wp/2015/03/25/scientists-have-figured-out-a-simple-way-to-cook-rice-that-dramatically-cuts-the-calories/
