She looked at me like I had three heads. "You mean you used to fall asleep at work?"
But I didn't eat it. I made scrambled eggs instead. And on day five, the fog began to lift. Here is the part that shocked me. By the end of the second week of being bread free, my constant bloat vanished. I didn't even realize I was bloated all the time. I thought having a "food baby" after every meal was normal.
Bread was not comfort. Bread was the fire, and I was the log. The biggest fear people have is: "If I am bread free, what do I eat for a sandwich?"
Remove all bread, pasta, crackers, and pastries from your home. Donate them or throw them away. Do not keep "emergency" bread.
When I say "I am bread free," I am not bragging about my willpower. I am telling you that I escaped a prison I didn't even know I was in.
Double your protein. Eat eggs for breakfast, chicken or fish for lunch, and meat or tofu for dinner. Protein kills the carb craving.
