What to do when only a bagel will do?

Following my poke' post on Monday, a friend texted me the following question: I read your post on lunch. Can I ask a professional question?  What do you recommend to overcome stress eating when only a bagel will do?? I’m sharing my response as I think many people feel entangled with bagel: OK, step one is to methadone yourself with better carbs. Try sprouted bagels or Free Bread gluten free toast .  Step two is to vegify. When we’re on the carb coaster salad isn’t appealing.  Have greens or a green vegetable with lunch and eat it first pre-bread. Have better carbs and greens for a week. Thanks!  I’m on the hunt for these to make my own East Pole/Le Pain Quotidien avocado toast.  Send me pictures (proof). I will!!  Love it.  Can you relate to my friend's question? What do you do to cut carb cravings?  If you try this you can send me photos too.
