Fitness Bread... Yea or Nay?



Recommended Posts

I bought a loaf from Mama Jeans health food store, because I was craving a sandwich. On my first try eating it I was disgusted. It had this kind of explainable tang to it. Then I did some poking around online and found out that it should be toasted first for best results. OMG! I have a new favorite food item. It's so much better toasted. So far I've made it with "peanut butter & banana" and "avocado, Tomato, sprouts, & mustard". I'm in love after almost trashing it. And it has a crazy shelf life if you keep it zip-locked in the fridge. I was wondering if anyone else has tried it yet? If you like it? And what you top it with? (open face and only half a slice of course).

From the ingredients list it looks like a bread you can buy at every grocery store in Germany (Mestemacher is a German company) . Try their Pumpernickel bread if you can get a hand on it.

However, I'm wondering why you thought it's disgusting when not toasted. Never thought of toasting this kind of bread so far.

I'll have to see what other flavors they have. I haven't had pumpernickel bread since I was a kid. As far as the flavor, its just overwhelming, kind of vinegary if it's not toasted. But toasting it took care of that issue, and it's pretty good.

      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.
