A Friendly ‘Warning’

This sounds a bit silly when I write it down, but I did have some fantasies around writing my baking book.

You see, I was hoping to write that because everything was so low-carb and using real food ingredients, that I didn’t gain weight while writing this book. But the thing is I did struggle with my waistline.

I only gained a kilo (2lb) so not exactly a big problem. But it didn’t feel great.

I’m afraid that doing all that baking and testing and tasting (you can’t not taste right?) wasn’t as easy as I’d hoped. The good news is as soon as I finished all the photography and went back to baking once a week, my waistline went back to normal.

But I wanted to share my story as a cautionary tale.

Even if these treats are low-carb / sugar-free / unprocessed, it can be easy to have too much. And too much is still too much.

The end.
