Problem with bread?



Recommended Posts

Hi,

I noticed that a lot of people have problem with bread. Obviously it's mushie and sticky so i can understand a problem, but what about a sandwich wrap. Has anyone had a problem with a wrap? Just curious, just started my mushies phase but daydreaming about regular food:)

I had a sandwich wrap from Arbys, and it just about killed me. If you try them make sure you take it real slow.

I find I like bread and particularly sandwiches toasted anyway. I hate regular sandwiches, I'd starve to death before I ate one voluntarily but I'm really hoping toasted sandwiches, toasted wraps and crispbreads are still possible.

I can't do fresh bread. So I was excited to try Subways wraps. Nope, first try stuck. Okay, waited a week, then tried again even slower.... NOPE! Wraps are out for me too. However, I can do a crunchy taco!

Thanks all, The one thing I have really learned on this great site is that everyone is so different on what causes PB's. I guess I will have to find out what is ok with my band. :D

I've had my first fill and am 6 weeks post opp, I've been eating bread, tortillas, potatoes of all kinds etc and have not had a single problem. I wonder if it's how much you chew each bite. I chew the heck out of my stuff, in fact my food is usually a very mushie consistency before I swallow. I think the point above is very valid. It is totally different for every single person. Just take it slow, one bit and chew, chew, chew, chew. . . and when you think you are done chewing, chew some more. :-) Cheers, you are at the beginning of a very awesome journey!!!

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
