[QUOTE="Gran25, post: 2078727, member: 489173"] One of the things I liked about the LCHF diet was that it eliminated my food cravings after a couple of weeks. It was very much uncharted territory for me after years of battling my weight and sweet tooth. As the cravings went away, the rather time consuming interest in cooking & baking went away. I was unaware of how much space all of that took up in my life. We still eat well and enjoy our meals, but they are simpler and less of a focus than previously. The idea of skipping breakfast was practically heretical as "breakfast is the most important meal of the day" is such an orthodoxy. In fact, a 2nd cup of coffee with heavy cream (sinful in the mainstream food bibles) keeps me going till noon or later without a twinge and I use the time to go for a 20-30km bike ride instead. Lunch sometimes becomes breakfast or the main meal of the day with whatever suits our fancy- I did initially make a lot of "faux food" eg low carb crackers and bread, but now find all that too much bother. I save my baking skills for low carb cheesecake. [/QUOTE]
