I find myself after a year and a half trying to still eat bread and it simply doesn't work. Finally I am giving it up - not because I think it is bad for you as a normal non banded person, simply because my banded body just won't tolerate it.

So, I went to the grocery store and luckily for me I own every low carb book there is so it wasn't a stretch to remember what foods I needed.

Tonight it is taco salad (minus the taco), I have forgotten how good this can be.

I am starting a new job this week and the breaks are different than what I am use to after five years at my other job. Here you cannot have random food at your desk, small Snacks are ok so I have prepared for this. I feel more in control than I have in a long time and it was wonderful tonight to eat and not have food getting stuck due to my "bread" choices :w00t:
