I know we are told to avoid "doughy" bread. I'm just wondering what types of "bread" are less apt to cause problems. Can most of you eat crackers, tortilla shells/wraps, flatbread,etc?
What causes you problems and what seems to work okay in small amounts?

In general, crunchy things go down easily. I've had a problem with doughy bread only once: THe center of a piece of Italian bread caused the "stuck" feeling.

It's common (but not my own experience) for foods that can be squeezed into a ball in one's hand to get stuck: Doughy bread, rice, Pasta, et al.

There's only one way to find out how you will respond. And you wouldn't necessarily respond the same way each time you eat any of those foods. Since you're already considering simple carbs, be smart and use a tracker* for everything you eat. The calories mount up rapidly.

*Everyone should track their intake regardless of the food choices.

Sprouted bread isn't doughy and won't gum up the pipes. I was using it, but since I seem to be carb sensitive,I've had to change course and drop all that and just go with basic plain Protein and leafy veg til I can break my stall.

      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! 😞
