if you're avoiding bread for carb reasons, then I don't think toasting it is going to make any difference. I didn't eat bread at all during the weight loss phase, since I was following a moderately low carb diet (not ultra low carb like a lot of bariatric patients do). I do eat bread occasionally now that I'm in maintenance - but then thing to keep in mind is that it's not terribly nutritious, and it takes up valuable space in our tiny stomachs. You're usually better off filling the space with protein and nutrient-dense things like vegetables.

Fingers crossed! But they'll approve!

Best wishes

Thats wonderful..i wiah you success and all that you want C

Omg me and my co-workers are dying here!🤣

All i can add is the Head games are tough!, but you have a choice 1. Stay fat and unhealthy and die early missing out on your kids and the future or Plow thru it deal with the head games and just stay focused - I decided to get healthy and live vs be burnt and put in a Urn Young - so whatever mental issues came at me after my crash i just stayed focused on that goal of getting healthy!

I splurged this week on new underwear, the first since surgery. I was careful to use my measurements to buy them and brought them home and washed them, as I always do before wearing them. I took the panties out and immediately said to myself, no way my big a** will fit these, to my surprise they fit. I did and said the same for the first lacey bra I've had in decades. It fit too. I need to be kinder to myself and not allow my head to talk to me like this. An exciting day and a big victory that I can't share with anyone but my husband, he's thrilled BTW. I suspect it will take some time for the head to catch up with the body. Now if I'm in an accident and rushed to the ER I will be known as the granny in sexy undies, and not granny panties!

To the people saying dont put crap in your body. I'm well aware of that. My normal diet contains low carb anyways. Please dont be a know it all. I haven't eaten for 4 days and keep having to go into the hospital because I cant hold anything down. Dont speak on what you dont know because I'm willing to try anything just to get some food in my body at this point. I'm not weak. I dont have craving for junk. I'd have a salad if I could or a tomato or veggies but cant even eat those! So dont lecture me on what's good or bad for me because I know! I just asked a simple question. If you dont want to answer or give advice on an alternative then that's fine, but dont lecture me about nutrition. Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app
