Happy Tuesday! It was rough waking up this morning because I just had to stay up and watch the RHWOBH Reunion ā anyone else?
After teaching boot camp I decided to head home for breakfast before running. At this point Iām playing it by ear stomach and deciding day by day.
Chilly Mornings + Not enough Sleep = Ear Covers and Lots oā iced coffee!
On the way home from camp I decided I wanted more cinnamon raisin toast for breakfast. I cannot get enough! I decided to stop on the way home for a loaf of Bagel Thins.
But, this got me thinking… When I hung out with my friend Susan recently we stopped at the grocery store for a snack she said she never has bread at home. 
I thought this was so weird since I ALWAYS have bread and eat it sometimes 2-3 times day. Iāve let myself run out of bread once since then and didnāt die (it was pretty close though). And that little experiment made me realize how much bread I eat! I eat PB&J toast before runs, bread with breakfast, egg sandwiches, garlic cheese breadā¦you get the idea.
Iām not trying to cut out bread because I donāt think thereās anything wrong with it. Like my favorite Sh!t People tell their trainers video said, āPeople have been eating bread for centuries!ā But I am going to try and opt for a bigger variety of whole grains for carb-age.Woman cannot live on bread alone, right?
I used my Cinnamon Bagels to make french toast. Dip it in some egg whites, dust with cinnamon and chia seeds, cook. Topped with PB & syrup.
Okay, I should get in a quick run because I have a pile āo emails and clients this afternoon.
Vote for your fave carb: Bread, Rice, Pasta, Cereal, Oatmeal, Potatoes, Sweet Potatoes, Tortillas, Pitas?
i’m glad to find information on this category. i’ve been trying to find in other websites, but i only found here.http://www.shoppingpantanal.net
You are one of my favorite bloggers. Because you eat like me! I love bread. French toast, and sandwiches, and garlic bread. Yum! I recently have at least been trying to buy things with whole grain in them, and have become slightly obsessed with 9 grain and seed bread from the grocery store bakery. SO GOOD!
I love bread as well and I don’t particularly want to cut it out of my life, but I don’t want to gorge myself on it when I have it in the house. I’ve found that if I keep my bread in the freezer, I can space out servings a little better. The act of getting a slice out and then thawing it for a minute or so on the counter or in the toaster slows me down.
On a side note, have you tried the Innkeepers bread from Costco? It’s soooo delicious…. hearty and whole grainy and soft. I highly recommend it.
Bread and pasta! I have them everyday, well, almost.
OATMEEEEEAAAAALLLLLL. TBH, Pretty sure I eat it multiple times a day. NBD.
I love sandwiches, and especially now that i am pregnant they are a staple for me. So I tend to always have bread around too. But I’m not really a bread snob, so if I’m going to eat two sandwiches a day i try to make sure it is small and not so calorie dense AND 100% whole grain.
I don’t keep bread in the house, but I definitely eat it out of the house. I have fallen in love with naan.
Funny video, however, I think it is very irresponsible for personal trainers to give out nutrition/dietary advice. They should stick to what the specialize in- EXERCISE.
PS: why is Adrienne so pissed at Lisa for stupid stuff? There must be something else going on…
Yeah, I totally didn’t get why the shoe thing was blown out of proportion?! It’s like they’re looking for an excuse to fight.
I could NOT give up bread either. I do try to eat the fiber rich kind though… i always hope that helps.
All of them. Ive never meet a carb I didn’t like.
I second this answer š
I am totally in love with the La Tortilla High Fiber tortillas…so delicious.
Me too! I get them from Costco and freeze one of the packs.
“I used my Cinnamon Bagels to make french toast. Dip it in some egg whites, dust with cinnamon and chia seeds, cook. Topped with PB & syrup.”
All added to today’s grocery list. How come I have never had this wonderful, delightful, filling AND healthy bread choice meal?? Well now I have and we will be the best of friends. Thank you!
Enjoy!
im actually not a bread fan. I dont know the last time i had it.
Love the real housewives! But i can never watch the reunion shows, they bore me to tears.
Has to be potatoes in the form of french fries. I realized just how often i don’t eat actual bread when I had to go gluten-free. I tried some gluten-free breads, but they all upset my stomach. I haven’t eaten a slice of bread in probably a year and I don’t even really think about it. What I really miss is being able to dine out without asking a million questions of every person in the place.
Bagel French toast???!!! You are a GENIUS!!! I am going to try that. I had to cut cereal out I the house, I ate too much of it. Oatmeal is much more filling and I’m never tempted to have another bowl because it’s not that great! That sounds sad when I write it out though!
I know I need to get rid of all this cereal up in here. Too bad I just got a delivery for 2 more boxes…
I love that video! And I love carbs too: biscuits, bread and tortillas are the big ones for me. Hope you have a good run.
I rarely eat bread! my top carbs are oatmeal and sweet potatoes.
I choose all of the above. I love carbs
Um can I vote for ALL? If I had to choose it would be really nice sour dough bread, the best!
Oh. I totally missed the reunion show. I’ll have to catch it sometime this week.
My favorite carb … hmmmm… in bread form probably Lite Whole Grain English Muffins. In rice form … I’d have to say Black Rice. I am not really into noodles right now but am trying to eat through the surplus that happens to be in my pantry. š
Ahhh! I missed the RHOBH reunion. I tried to stay up for the rerun, but didn’t make it. Can’t wait to catch it!!!
I love sweet potatoes but my weakness is fresh, chewy sourdough bread. Could eat the whole loaf!
Oatmeal all the way š
I love bread…I don’t blame you
I’d totally put brown rice and bread at the top of the list. I love anything carboy though. It’s just so awesome!
Does granola count? I also love naan! I haven’t seen the RHOBH reunion yet, but I am so excited to watch it later today.
PASTA!
I’ve converted to English muffins and pitas… they are less dense and bread-y. Otherwise, if I want PB or something, I use pretzels as the medium — a serving is like 21 of them… a lot.
I caught the reunion about halfway through but it is on the DVR so I will catch up later.
Do I have to pick just one? Waffles, Bagels, pasta, scones, sweet potatoes. Not necessarily in that order.
But fruit is a carb. So that would be #1.
The Kidless Kronicles
Must i pick a favorite carb? Potatoes in any form. Also tortillas are awesome because you can put so many delicious things in them.
Have you ever tried Western Bagel’s alternative pita bread or bagels? They are really high fiber and also have protein and only 110 calories, and they keep me more full than regular bread. I’ve made “french toast” with the pita, but I usually toast it and then top it with an eggwhite and veggie scramble.
As for the reunion, it’s on my Tivo. I’m possibly more excited for the “Watch What Happens Live” that follows, though. Do you watch it? I think Andy Cohen is brilliant.
Yep, I have the Pitas right now and have tried all flavors of the alternative bagels š I used to be obsessed with them!
I dvred RHOBH!! Can’t wait to watch it! We have Ezekial bread at home and then some for my daughter but I really only eat it once a week before long runs. This is a HUGE change from my Portuguese upbringing when we had a loaf of bread and butter on the table for EVERY meal!! I would vote for bread or pasta….love them!
I need some bread in my life, too…but variety is the spice of life. Although I think I would happily eat that cinnamon raisin french toast every meal of every day.
I like way too many carbs to choose just one favorite!
i totally stayed up to watch the reunion too and then i started to watch some of its a brad brad world to see the sneak peek for next week! yikes it pushed my bedtime back. i think my favorite carb is bagels or pasta. i don’t think pizza counts.
