I'm Afraid of Bread...



Recommended Posts

I'm almost 5 years post sleeve and even nowi just don't eat yeasty bread much because it does seem to "puff" up. It never hurt, but made me feel full very fast. I can eat Middle Eastern flat bread. Pasta also fills me up fast too. Listen to your body, if you feel full, then you are. Stop eating when you get that feeling. I used to love love love bread but now it does not bother me not to eat it.

I can now add Reduced Fat Triscuits with Laughing Cow cheese to my list of "food bricks".

This may be worse than Pasta and I only ate 2 crackers!!!

:angry:

I can eat more wheat thins then triscuits... But don't have problems with none of the crackers. I make sure I don't exceed 6 wheat thins though.. And they aren't a slider for me

I tried bread today. Rosemary and olive oil crusty bread, dipping it in broccoli and cheese Soup. Yummy but full almost immediately.

I do 1 slice is Sara Lee 40 calorie wheat bread, so a half sandwich, usually tuna, egg salad or pb&j. It's very filling, but doesn't always hurt me. Toasted sometimes helps. I can do whole wheat Pasta and brown rice, but not often. I usually make a Breakfast rice, with bacon and eggs for some extra Protein. I have no problem with tortilla chips and salsa, but have to be very careful with a tortilla. Usually do carb smart wheat tortillas and they are small but can only eat 1.

I tried bread again today and it didn't work out. I broke up a small piece into my stew... Almost instant discomfort.

Bread and Pasta are a no go for now. It's probably best.

me too. I love the Kashi crackers instead , small, easy to digest. i try to bite a third of a cracker at a time. sometimes i put laughing cow light chipotle cheese spread- very low in calories. serves as a reasonable snack mid day.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
