I eat bread daily. Often a slice of whole wheat at Breakfast or in a sandwich at lunch. I eat white bread less often, less than once per week. Sometimes I toast the bread, chop it into cubes, and have it in my salad. It's not a trigger food for me. I eat some whole grains with each meal. When it's not the bread, might be barley, oatmeal, or quinoa. Occasionally rice or Pasta. If I don't have the whole grain, I have a starchy veggies, such as sweet potato, corn, or Beans.

Have trouble with breads of any type...seems to fill me up too fast than I get this pain-like feeling. I steer clear of bread.

This morning I had half a whole wheat English muffin( only Thomas's brand). For lunch, I'll eat one piece of wheat bread with turkey and a slice of cheese. I will have chicken and salad for dinner. I still lost 2lbs last week eating bread. I'm also on 25units of long acting insulin a day so I do need to have some carbs. I can't just sit down at dinner and eat from a bread basket in a restaurant, but I can have small amounts and I'm 100% OK with that.

As per religious observance, I bake and eat Challah every Friday and Saturday for HaMotzi. Between a pinch of Challah and about 3oz of Grape juice, I'm stuffed to the gills. I've had great luck with thin pieces of Rye for when I need a deli fix.

How soon after your procedure did you have challah? Thanks!

I'd say about 2 months.

I eat bread, a little, but sometimes I just can t refuse. I think I may have slower weight loss because of it. I like a variety in food. meat and salad is getting boring to me, a egg and toast is what I like once in a while, also a tuna snadwich..:) I keep my protien up and also Water on those days.

One slice of toast and marmite and I am pleasantly full. Not one more bite, though, or it is extremely uncomfortable!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
