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

im two weeks post up with a 2 cc fill and im too scared to attempt eating bread. ive been stuck before and after waiting a while stuff tends to eventually work its way down but im afraid bread would be one of those things that needs to work its way back up. :wink2:

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
