Protein Bread?



Recommended Posts

I am going to see my nutritionist next week. I will be asking about this for down the road. I'll let you know what she says :-)

I think I will stick to my lettuce wraps. I love eating my Protein in the way of chicken and tuna salad, and even "tacos" in the lettuce wraps. Having 2 diabetics sleeved here, and being older, we have foregone anything that resembles "bread". Good luck to you all.

Sounds like a good source of Protein if you can tolerate bread. For me, bread is no longer my friend. I'm almost 18 months post op & don't tolerate bread well. So good luck if you can handle it.

Anyone ever tried this? Or something similar? I'm only 6 weeks out... Wondering if it's something we can try? https://www.p28foods.com/baked-goods/p28-high-protein-bread

I can't answer this question but I'm interested in the answer. :)

I have a loaf in the freezer right now. I have had 1/2 slices of the whole wheat light SL brand bread as toast and did fine. The P28 wraps have an odd tactile texture (almost velvet-like) but they taste pretty good-I usually split one wrap into 4 sections. I may give it a try this weekend with some BP2 spread.

Hello,

I wish I could try this Protein bread but I've researched it and it's not available in the UK. I received an email saying they hope to deliver to the UK in the future but god knows how soon that will be.

I'll keep an eye out for it though. :))

Be patient. You will not be wanting bread for awhile I promise! You will be afraid but you can sample tiny pieces later on. I have not bought any bread since Sept. 2013 and it is my favorite thing in the world. Not worth the risk.

I have a different brand, but similar bread. It sits heavy and doesn't really taste like bread. It is better toasted. I would wait until you are 4-6months out. It isn't the great thing it makes out to be, IMHO.

I have tried warburtons flat squares toasted with baked Beans. The first time I only had 1/2 and the following time a whole one and was perfectly fine. I wouldn't try any type of thicker bread though for quite some time. :)

I've tried it. I could only do half a slice at a time. I threw out half the loaf though. It's not that' there's anything wrong with it per se. It does sit heavy and thunks hard. But the main thing is I guess 9 months of no bread and I'm out of the habit of eating bread and so it never occurred to me to eat it, and it went stale.

Which I would NOT have believed was possible before surgery! I loved loved loved bread. So in a way, I'm glad I just went cold turkey instead if using this or low carb breads. Because now I don't crave any of them.

      Sometimes reading the posts here make me wonder if some people just weren't mentally ready for WLS and needed more time with the bariatric team psychiatrist. Complaining about the limited drink/food choices early on... blah..blah...blah. The living to eat mentality really needs to go and be replaced with eating to live. JS

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.
