I don't really understand what is going on. A couple weeks ago I started making vegetables the base of all my meals. Then low fat dairy for snacks and some whole grains. Also, at night sometimes I have small dessert. The idea was that I was going to stop eating sugar and white flour foods, but at night I still miss a sweet treat occassionly so I have it. Anyway, I thought that the sweet would ruin my plan and send me into binge mode for the next day and it didn't do anything at all. Turns out that I have been fine the next day and continue to lose weight. I have read bunches of different diet books and this sounds a lot like the carbohydrates addict plan, but I remember trying it before, and I didn't think that I could stick with it (probably mainly because the one carb meal you were allowed per day I used as a binge). I am wondering if I may have a plan that will work for me. Does this sound familiar to anyone who has been successful?
Here is what I eat or will eat today.

1/2 breakfast sandwich (1 egg, 1 slice whole grain bread, sprinkle cheese)

Dessert
Last night I ate 3 Oreo cookies and 1/2 cup homemade ice cream
(I probably won't do this again tonight)
