Addicted to Carbs

My dinner is much more varied. If I've gone shopping that day, the entree will invariably be wild (never farmed) fresh fish. Otherwise it will often be organic chicken. I enjoy either with some plain strained yogurt. The book, Dr. Bernstein's Diabetes Solution by Richard K. Bernstein offers many more suggestions.

I know that I've broken my carb addiction. Unlike such addictions as tobacco, after we break this addiction, eating some carbs won't trigger a renewal of the carb lust. I can now enjoy an occasional piece of ripe fruit or slice of good bread or a cookie without having to eat more and more.

Instead, I'm eating less but enjoying it more.
