Bread...?

[Ms skinniness 3,003]

I seldom eat breads, pastas, or sweets. These are very addictive for me.

Why did you convert from band to sleeve ...in the deciding phase just curious

I was going to be "banded" but the nurse for my gastric doctor stated that most "bands" can slip and cause infections from lacerations from slippage which happens often and 90% of the patient who get the band wind up coming back for the sleeve, she herself had the sleeve and she showed me a couple of before and after pics and highly recommended it, I took a chance and took her advise and I am very grateful I did.

I am reading the book Wheat belly right now and I am so alarmed by what is in the book that I doubt that I will be eating much of anything that contains wheat from here on out lol' date=' Not that i eat it often anyway, maybe once a month.It took a few months to tolerate - I am a carb addict so I stay away from it.

The wheat that is produced now is so genetically modified that it is thousands of chromosomal iterations away from the parent strains, even from just a few decades ago ( the bread I grew up on in the 70's) - and it has never been tested for safety in humans or animals. Makes sense - genetically modified strains of wheat started rolling out just when the population was starting to gain weight at an alarming rate - when we have always stayed within a normal, healthy range in terms of body composition for thousands of years.[/quote']

That's interesting. I eat pita bread that is made in a middle eastern grocery store. I wonder if this is true for that too. Eeek!

My NUT said that toasted bread and crackers were okay once I hit soft foods. I can't eat more than a slice and I've made sure to enjoy the 100% whole wheat light bread. I suppose I'm one of the lucky ones in that respect. I haven't had any trouble with any foods!
