Breads ????

[Morganjm 5]

Is there any kind of bread or flat bread or pita or something to use for a sandwich that is lapband friendly or dont dough up???

You should be able to eat any bread as long as it's toasted. I just feel better not eating bread so I don't. You'll just have to experiment & find a brand you like. If I want a "sandwhich" I have a lettuce wrap- romaine is perfect for it! Good luck.

I would love to know that myself! I can't have any kind of bread toasted or not I haven't had a sandwich in months! If you find a good one please let me know!

i buy those thin bagles. they are super thin and i think 100 calories. I have never gotten stuck eating one of them. I toast them for a sandwich or put a little garlic and "spray butter" on them and krisp them up in the oven for garlic bread. mmmmm also a pita pocket is a good choice. I can do most breads toasted.

I eat mini whole wheat Bagels toasted, whole wheat breads, and thomas' english muffins (all toasted) I am fine as long as its toasted. I like to keep my breads in the toaster oven and get it crunchy by just letting it cook a little longer. Whole wheat pita breads are great sliced in halfs and toasted. You should have no problems with eating toasted breads at all.

Thanks, I will try the whole wheat thin sliced Bagels. Sounds great!!!

I was banded 2 1/2 years ago and can only tolerate toast about once every six months. Ok that is a choice and I am good with it, but I still cannot eat/digest the majority of meats out there! Nothing ground, and nothing roasted EXCEPT the occasional piece of pork! Anyone else have this problem? I basically live on Soup, a fried egg or the occasional salad. If I try to discuss this with my provider they immediately want to xray. I have done this all is normal but does anyone else have such a poor diet?

It sounds like you are living on "sliders". Your band is probably too tight. You are probably hungry so you think it's too loose but it's actually the opposite. If you are so restricted you can't keep down solid Protein you won't feel satiation. Listen to your dr. Read the threads in "complications" & you'll see the long term problems a too tight band can cause Trust me - you will feel so much better. Good luck.

Morganjm & Tere1985...I've only been banded since 9/7/12 but I have only eaten lo-carb tortillas for use as bread. I usually make a cheese or sausage n cheese quesadilla. Yesterday I made a tuna melt. If you haven't already, give it a try. Good luck!
