I heard of it at a support group but have not tried it.

I do OK with whole wheat or whole grain. Not so good with white or french bread.< /p>

Forget bagels...ugh!

I have pretty much given up on bread too, I can have a very thin small piece of french bread if I toast on both sides, almost to be like a cruton, and tonight I tried a whole wheat thin Orowheat hamburger bun, I only used 1 side and toasted it and was able to eat some of it. At least it felt like a real hamburger. But for the most part bread is not my friend.

I only use hamburger Buns as handles. I tear them away as I eat. Every once in a while I can eat a little tiny piece of it to get a taste.

I feel like I am eating a hamburger that way. But I also have to be careful that I don't take too big of a bite. Eating with my hands can cause that. Sandwiches and burgers are especially bad for that!

I love it even though it's almost five dollar a loaf. But if you keep it in the freezer and only take out a serving at a time , it doesn't go bad. I wouldn't recommend leaving it out of the fridge.

Plus I can only eat it toasted because not toasted, I think it has too much of an earthy flavor and its so dense. But toasted with some pb or jelly or butter, yummy.

It rarely elevates my blood sugar and satisfies my bread urge. You can find it in most freezer sections in the bread area or in a health food store. It supposedly is made like they would make it in the bible days...au natural.

Scripture:

Ezekial 4:9

"Take wheat and barley, Beans and lentils, millet and spelt; put them in a storage jar and use them to make bread for yourself

I had given up on breads too- they ball up get dought and get stuck -

however at work the other day i didnt plan and didnt rbing anything. - A girl i work with has celiac so she uses all these gluten free , rice breads, she has this "english muffin" which looked more like a biscut - it was rice - she gave me half that I ate with tuna salad, , i was amazed at how well it went down, no pain, no sliming.. i felt like i actually ate a sandwhich, i talked with a nurse a work with and she said it was probably because it was wheat and gluten free and those are what cause the dough effect.. i am going to buy some and see if i have the same result.. they are even big enough to use as a burger roll!! If it was a freak thing and i cant eat them at least i know someone at work who can use it lol

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
