I was never a sweets person, so sugar doesn't do it to me, but things like pizza and baking bread certainly do. We are so cued into our triggers. I can be stuffed and smell something or even read a recipe and see a picture and I am drooling and feel hungry.

This is bad because I am writing a low carb cookbook, so I am looking at food all the time. Sometimes I have to just stop and do something else for a while to keep from eating every five minutes.
