Hi.. I am no where wanting to try breads.. I've heard nothing but bad things about people with breads.. but i was wondering if it is all breads or just the soft doughy like.. or is the harder baked breads ok.. some people are eating english muffins that I know with no problems and others can't??

I have only had problems with cheap white bread. The kind you get in free rolls at restaurants.

The only bread I can eat at the moment is light flour tortillas. All other breads get stuck - a fact that I had inexplicably forgotten when I ordered and tried to eat a souvlaki on Sunday!

I eat wholemeal bread and find that if it is toasted it is easier than if it is soft. I can do english muffins but usually only half.They are not particularly healthy so if you do want bread go for the grainy types - they are far more nutritious.

Most types of bread give me trouble including Pizza Crust and tortillas. If I crave something that is like bread I do ok with reduced fat wheat thins.

I personally try to avoid bread especially after an adjustment. I can usually get down flour tortillas and thin crust pizza if I chew it well.

Toasted breads are better, and crackers are good too. Anything doughy, sourdough or pizza that isn't thin crust gives me problems most days!

Everyone is different.. I can't do any bread at all.. even a pretzel or cracker gives me grief so I just stopped trying about 8 months ago

bread can be the devil sometimes. I can usually do fine with toast (1 piece), or thin crust pizza. But any type of roll, forget it!...just doesnt go down, so i dont even attempt it anymore.

I can eat it, but dont often want it, since it inexplicably tastes unsatifsying and not as nice as it smells when I have restriction.

When I unfilled last year for a surgery - bread tasted great again - got some fill in, didnt taste so good.

sometimes I really want a piece of toast and have it and really enjoy it. More often I make it, take a bite and feel nauseous, it just doesnt taste right. Its so weird.

I also really want to enjoy an apple, but that's another thing that although i can eat, it tastes wrong to me.

I can eat pretty much any bread but only in very small amounts. The amount of bread I eat now is equal to or less than the size of the lump of butter I used to throw on the bread. Tiny pieces and whatever you do, don't drink. Water + bread may = stuck = sucks.

      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.
