Ms skinniness 3,003 Posted May 30, 2012 If you have to have the bread, then toast it first. Otherwise bread will expand in your stomach and take up valuable space for more nutritional foods. My stomach doesn't like bread anymore. I avoid it as much as possible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kimmy*custis 276 Posted May 30, 2012 I am almost 4 months out and just had a piece of bread with chicken salad, could only eat 1/2 of it. I think if you toast the bread you would be ok. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
