Very good post, and it came at a really good moment for me. I am slowly comingto terms with the idea that I am a carb addict.

Ways to tell if you are a carb addict;

1. If carbs and food have negatively impacted your life

2. If you spend a large part of the day thinking about carby foods or eating them

3. If you have any (several) private stashes of carbs

4. If you become irritable when you can't get your "fix" of carbs

5. If it takes more carbs to satisfy your cravings

6. If others have ever "spoken" to you about your intake of carbs

7. If you catch yourself eating more carbs than everyone else at social events

There's probably a better list somewhere. This one is just taken very loosely from what I remember of the alcoholic/addiction quiz.

Thanks for posting this.

Michelle
