Bread and dieting
I'm back on the Weightwatcher's Core Plan, which allows me to eat all I want of a list of healthy foods -- lean meats, eggs, vegetables and fruits, and whole grains. Bread isn't on the list. Dang.
However, I'm wondering how it is that I can eat all the couscous or kasha or rolled oats I want, but no bread. Seems to me that artisan bread made with whole wheat isn't all that different from cracked wheat -- is it?
I can eat a small amount of foods not on the list, so I guess I'll spend my point allowance on bread.
Has anyone else here tried combining baking and dieting? Do bakers tend to be roly-poly or svelte?
