I hear lots of people saying that you should wait until the end of your first year before you should re-introduce bread, but I think you are ahead of the game seeing as you've already surpassed your goal weight. To be quite honest, I would have a slice if I wanted it. I would be careful to not have it often, but a slice every once and again shouldn't hurt. You know what you can handle by now. It is a good thing that Ezekiel bread stays frozen. It can last you quite a while.

Congratulations on reaching your goal, and good luck reaching the new one.

Staying away from any form of bread is the best thing you can do for yourself. That includes Pasta and potatoes of any kind.

It’s the best bread out there and will make you fuller sooner than regular bread. It has more Protein in it. I suggest one piece, you’ll be lucky to eat half.

It’s the only bread I buy and aids in weight loss.

My surgeon told me at 6 months to reintroduce whole grains. That my body needs them. I was told I could have whole grain bread, just a slice a couple times a week. The best bread I found with the proper ingredients and good stuff that was healthy was Dave’s Killer Bread Thin sliced organic. It’s got Protein, Fiber and alot of Omega 3’s. It tastes good too.

My NUT approved toast as soon as I went to solid foods. Limited amounts of it, and it has to be very dry. Just be aware of the calories you're taking in and you'll be fine.

The problem with not toast is that it can as much as double in size in your stomach. So think about what that means. You eat until you're full, and then slowly the bread begins to grow in your sleeve -- it's going to be uncomfortable, might even hurt. To avoid this, I suggest eating it slowly, or eating a VERY SMALL AMOUNT and NOT until you're full.

My family finally is willing to eat something better for them. Raisin Ezekial bread. So happy.

Tastes good to me too, but I'm not at goal yet.

I've tried the Monk Fruit granulated powder. I can't say it's my favorite, to me it does have an aftertaste, but it's tolerable.

FYI, the agave sweetners are still high in fructose and carbs.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      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!
