bread

March 13 surgery when I eat this I feel like crap. Why?

[magpie30 187]

possibly because it will expand in your stomach and cause discomfort. my doc recommended no bread until 3 months out simply because of the expansion and discomfort issue.

I am four 1/2 months out and I still can't eat bread!! Very small amounts, even pittas, wraps, etc. I end up picking all the Protein out and toss the rest, I don't even bother anymore.

bread is not recommended as it gets Gummy in your stomach. Toasted bread is okay though.

I am 11 mos. out and cannot eat carbs! I never thought I would say this but... I HATE FRENCH FRIES ! I only do Proteins, am still loosing but I just cannot seem to handle it. I dont know if its the carbs or the fats?

I dont even bother with breads. They are a filler and that' why we grew up with bread and butter at the dinner table. As for not being able to tolerate it.. Take a chuck of bread and put it in a little water.. IT GROWS! Now, think about what you stuffed in your stomach and then imagine it growing. No wonder it's uncomfortable. I love breads, but not that much

Its just not only intolerable but it makes me sick! I feel awful when I eat them.

I eat one slice of bread (whole wheat) per day, but very, very slowly...

I eat one slice of very well toasted bread in the morning and 3 to 4 crackers sometime during the day with a snack. that's my carb intake for the day. I don't use butter on my bread, i use avocado.
