I'll definitely try this recipe - I love to make puff pastry pies with potatoes, bacon, tomatoes etc, but I've never tried making one without pastry! must be great! <br /><br />I can relate to you, I hate dieting and I've actually done it just twice in my life - I tried the Weightwatchers (which worked for me, but life was so dull with all that low-fat, translucent milk and rice crackers) and another diet - both times I couldn't think about anything else but food!! Are you even sure you need to diet? :-pAlinahttp://www.russianseason.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4403924811495138765.post-8494260737637946872012-07-27T16:09:45.467+08:002012-07-27T16:09:45.467+08:00Thanks Mr T!

You exercise 3 times a week, eat well - not sufficient to justify a diet.

I'm a "visual eater" too, and blog world is FULL of wonderful food photos -- including yours! No wonder we crave things.<br /><br />But, you're still making progress -- becoming aware of what you eat and it's effect on you, playing tennis, and choosing to do things that work for YOU. You WILL succeed (despite your dramatic first paragraph!) :) and, personally, I think indulging a craving now and then is good for the soul.Kimbyhttp://www.alittlelunch.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4403924811495138765.post-58347045503521920892012-07-14T12:02:26.440+08:002012-07-14T12:02:26.440+08:00Sigh, yeah.

It's the crave for a certain something that satisfies.

Apparently they dissolve some in their green tea and they feel full. My Japanese friend confirmed the popularity of this method (although she hasn't tried it). I am very curious if it works. I promise myself I will test it, but forget all the time... I don't know if the agar desserts are more filling than for example the ones I make with gelatin. I have to make two identical to check. (By the way, you know what I do when I crave carbs in the evening or at night? I drink a glass of wine! It stops my cravings and calorie-wise is better than a bowl of rice, a sandwich or a cake...).Sissihttp://www.withaglass.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4403924811495138765.post-57361862259322009682012-07-12T20:58:37.716+08:002012-07-12T20:58:37.716+08:00Haha!
