I find cravings a problem too. I especially like a little something swet after a meal. I find the mini-ice creams are good - they saisfy that need and are not too high in calories as long as you stay clear of mini-magnums!!) You get a bit of chocolate too with most of them!

Otherwise I find a cup of tea or coffee helps, or some fruit. I love bread too. My solutions are
buy small loaves (relatively much dearer, but the slices are smaller) toast one slice at a time and eat it very ery slowly; eat oatcakes - fewer cals, and I don't put butter on them. I think that cutting out a staple like bread is really counterproductive. Sometimes I just tell myself that if I REALLY want bread, then I suppose I can have it (with the sort of attitude that my teenage d. has when I ask her to do something for me!) - it quite often puts me off!
