Are there any carbohydrate addicts out there? I really think there should be such a thing as Carboholics Anonymous.
My name is Lisa and I'm a carboholic.
If I'm not careful, I'll eat starchy carbohydrates when I'm stressed. They'll comfort me temporarily but then I'll get sluggish and grouchy. It really is like a drug.
Science has shown that this is a real problem for some people and following the traditional wisdom of the Food Guide Pyramid will literally kill them by making them obese.
Are you one of these people? If you are, I say: Carboholics unite!
I am totally addicted to carbs....if I didn't eat carbs, I wouldn't be alive. I am not a big meat fan. I live mostly on breads and cereals, fruit, veggies, and dairy. If my husband isn't going to be home for dinner, I don't even cook meat. However, I am not overweight either. As long as I keep my portions where they should be at and I exercise, I don't have much of a problem with weight. I guess everyones bodies are different.
I actually have an exceptionally efficient body. I can do on 1 calorie what many need 10 for! Sadly, that efficiency equates to much more fat being stored, so being a carb addict is a bad thing for me.
I hear you about not cooking. My husband has been gone for months so I usually just cook for my son and eat his leftovers.
