Sub to bread

[LBwPCOS 14]

Friends took me out to a market that was actually a food market!

NSV is that i didn't spend any money!!! i was able to pick off their plates haha and had some of their gnocchi and arancini which kept down so easily! Didn't want to try too much etc so made sure my fluids were kept up

So maybe rice will be ok after all but still bread bread bread so many burger and bread options tonight!! specially only as tomorrow is 4 weeks so fingers crossed

What was it like when you were banded eating the breads? did you eat all types etc??

And you are totally right!! there were times where i would have a toasted sandwich for Breakfast then a sandwich for lunch and with out realising that was 4 slices of bread.

I think realistically i would like to have it as a wrap - more fillings less carbs (and not a fan of burgers but good idea to have it as an open!) do you use flower tortillas or corn???

Honestly, I had no issues whatsoever with breads while I was banded. I could eat regular bread, Buns, Bagels, waffles, pancakes, tortillas, pita's, you name it. I couldn't eat a large quantity of it, but I could probably get down most of McDonald's hamburger (both buns) as long as I ate slowly.

Our family is hispanic, so we eat all kinds of tortillas, depending upon the occasion and the type of food. I make my own flour ones. I buy soft corn ones and roast/toast them or fry (I know/I know) them as needed. We make tacos, quesadillas, enchiladas, or use them to scoop up the main dish. If I'm making wraps at home, I will buy those because they're bigger and flatter/easier to make a wrap. I like the spinach ones.

Sadly, yes. You will. More's the pity.

Because this weight loss and maintenance game is about changing habits of a lifetime that got us to the Obesity Ball in the first place. It would be so easy if we never could eat these old foods we used to adore so much, without repercussions like getting sick or something. But reality is you will be able to eat WAY more of that stuff than is good for you, and most likely you will still have a preference for it over healthy/clean foods...and you will have to fight not to eat it with more and more frequency and abandon.
