The next day I was in an area of Kyoto that I hadn't been before, and lo and behold... right in front of me, one of the DeliFrance chain stores. I'd never seen one in Japan before, but when in Singapore we often eat breakfast there. The croissants are magnificent! Fortunately, I was able to pass it by... but it was a close call.

Very strong-willed of you. I can resist everything but temptation (Oscar Wilde). My fasting diet allows me to have more of less what I want on the non-fasting days, so I can give in to little temptations . However, I have found my weight loss has more or less stopped, so maybe I'm over-compensating on my off days. Will need to watch those calories every day, methinks. Mind you, I am only one pound above my target weight, so I'm happy enough if I can just maintain.
