I eat bread daily. Often a slice of whole wheat at Breakfast or in a sandwich at lunch. I eat white bread less often, less than once per week. Sometimes I toast the bread, chop it into cubes, and have it in my salad. It's not a trigger food for me. I eat some whole grains with each meal. When it's not the bread, might be barley, oatmeal, or quinoa. Occasionally rice or Pasta. If I don't have the whole grain, I have a starchy veggies, such as sweet potato, corn, or Beans.

Have trouble with breads of any type...seems to fill me up too fast than I get this pain-like feeling. I steer clear of bread.

This morning I had half a whole wheat English muffin( only Thomas's brand). For lunch, I'll eat one piece of wheat bread with turkey and a slice of cheese. I will have chicken and salad for dinner. I still lost 2lbs last week eating bread. I'm also on 25units of long acting insulin a day so I do need to have some carbs. I can't just sit down at dinner and eat from a bread basket in a restaurant, but I can have small amounts and I'm 100% OK with that.

As per religious observance, I bake and eat Challah every Friday and Saturday for HaMotzi. Between a pinch of Challah and about 3oz of Grape juice, I'm stuffed to the gills. I've had great luck with thin pieces of Rye for when I need a deli fix.

How soon after your procedure did you have challah? Thanks!

I'd say about 2 months.

I eat bread, a little, but sometimes I just can t refuse. I think I may have slower weight loss because of it. I like a variety in food. meat and salad is getting boring to me, a egg and toast is what I like once in a while, also a tuna snadwich..:) I keep my protien up and also Water on those days.

One slice of toast and marmite and I am pleasantly full. Not one more bite, though, or it is extremely uncomfortable!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
