Can Someone Please Tell Me If I Can Ever Eat Bread Again?



Recommended Posts

I'm a little confused about the whole "bread" situation.

I was told "no bread", because it "doughs up" and doesn't digest well.

Then, I noticed that I can have "crisp toast".

Is the only way I can ever eat bread again is to make sure it's toasted really well??

Does this mean I can never eat plain white or wheat bread, or hamburger and hotdog Buns, or anything like that without "toasting them"??

I've read about people eating biscuits, croissants, wraps, etc. on here.

I'm a little confused!!

Thanx to anyone willing to answer this question for me!!

I can eat all types of bread. Sometimes it's hard to down it but if I eat it slowly, no problem.

i dont do Buns, but i can have a SMALL piece of bread with dinner (Macaroni Grill, etc...) i do best with the crispy bread, but if i am really careful, i can do regular bread...

BUT - never, ever, in the morning...

Thanx, Losingjusme!!

I guess this is going to have to be a "trial and error" thing!!

I did eat a piece of really crispy wheat toast this past weekend and did just fine.

I ate very slow and chewed it really well before I swallowed it.

:wub:

Well, can you? I don't see why not. But I've read some on here do have issues with different types of bread.< /p>

But, I eat Subway still. But I can't seem to get a bun from Arby's or McDonald's down. Weird, huh?

That is weird...

I guess I'll just have to "test" different kinds of bread and see how I do.

My doctor's office was like "no bread", and then I read about all these people eating bread...I was perplexed!!

I've had one fill and I still can eat anything (including bread) as long as I don't eat too quickly.

Pizzaman can still down an occasional slice. :wink:

I can eat a little bit of bread. Yesterday I ate 1/2 a burger with only the bottom piece of the bun. I have a hard time with store bought tortillas but seem to be able to eat a homemade tortilla. Store bought tend to be thicker.

on some days i can some days I cant. However , Personally after 9 months I find i dont want /care for bread much and I dont eat it i dont care one way or another. After being banded for longer periods of time you will find , bread is just bread , its not that big of a deal if you eat it or not . At least that's how i am.

Every now and then I see someone eating a big juicy burger and think " gee that looks good to be able to eat a burger again like that " But that is about it .

Im eating a very think California pizza Pizza right now . no issues.

I dont really care to eat toast, Buns, ect much anymore.

everyone is different though .

I can eat all types of bread but some types can be hard.

But yes, I can eat it. And do most days. Mostly wholegrain or toast and not soft white Buns or McDonalds or Subway or anything like that. It sounds awful to never eat something again but for something like McDonalds, its so much work to eat it that its just not even enjoyable in the slightest and you naturally just go off those food and dont want them.

Technically I can, but I don't like the way it feels, so I don't anymore. I haven't tried since my last fill, but I imagine I still could. bread lost it's appeal awhile ago though.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      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! 😞
