What's your healthy alternative to bread?



Recommended Posts

It may take a little getting used to but I have come to love Ezekial sprouted grain bread with my egg in the morning. Or low carb high Protein wraps.... Those taste great ( pop one in the microwave for 10 seconds for a nice warm soft wrap with chicken , tukey etc...

Or try these - 1/2 of one with egg or deli meats folded up inside is only 50 calories :) seem easy to swallow too.

Good luck!

I second the sprouted bread. There are many brands and types to experiment with, full of healthy grains, moderate calories, low sugar, and I've found some that have 7 grams of Protein per slice.

Sprouted bread is great but also any grains made from Almond flour as well. Or grain free recipes and making your own. Atkins also has recipes and a break collection, but I've not tried. Also Paleo bread is a nice alternative.Carb Zero is another bread and I also make one made w/ egg white and cream of tartar if you google it!

I found a great 20g Protein Pasta that has individual servings in the box and it is very reasonable. I think I paid 6$ for 6 servings. Ciao is the brand as well as a few others.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
