I've found this amazing cookbook called recipes for Life After Weight Loss Surgery and have made several of the recipes with great success. However in the "Lunch" section it keeps mentioning "diet whole wheat bread" but isn't any more specific than that. It must be low carb bread, too, because for the whole recipe (including 2 slices of bread) it's only 27 total carbs. I googled "diet whole wheat bread" but came up empty. Any suggestions about low carb whole wheat?

Let me edit that to say whole GRAIN bread, not whole wheat.

I haven't tried it yet, but I've heard pretty good things about Julian Bakery, they have a lot of low carb items for sale, wraps, Protein bars. A lot of things made specifically for the Paleo diet, on their website, Including no carb, and low carb breads.

If I can tolerate bread, which I haven't tried since surgery, I will order a few loaves from Julian Bakery, and freeze. I want to avoid adding more carbs. And I'd like to have a tiny sandwich, I bet I could maybe eat 1/4th of a whole sandwich. lol This seems a good solution for that.

I don't eat bread at all, but I do buy Nature's Own 100% Whole Wheat for my family. One slice is 60 cal, 11g carbs (2 Fiber less than 1 sugar) and 4g Protein. Pretty good stats for bread!

I keep seeing ads for the Julian Protein bars--they look really good but are pricey! If anyone tries them I would love to hear how they are!

I will occasionally use this flat out bread that has flax seed in it. I get mine at ALDI. I only eat half of one though at a time and usually only one a day.

Bread I have now is healthy life soft style 100% whole grain. 1 slice has 1fat, 12.5 carb, 1.5 dietary fiber and 3 Protein. But again 1 slice, once a day. Not every day. I deduct dietary fiber from carbs.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
