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.

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        I hope your surgery on Wednesday goes well. You will be able to do all sorts of new things as you find your new normal after surgery. I don't know this from experience yet, but I am seeing a lot of positive things from people who have had it done. Best of luck!

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.
