I know ya'll are getting anoyed with every other post being from me but since I am in recovery I have nothing to do but surf the web! So, ya'll have answered all my ?'s about eating bread - but can I still eat whole wheat or low carb Pasta sometimes? Will it go down ok? I know carbs are bad for weight loss but if it would go down ok I would like to continue to eat the "healthier" pasta from time to time. What do ya'll think? Does pasta go down ok?

It does for me, but I've not had a fill yet. I only eat it maybe once or twice a month though. I used to be a pasta/bread addict, but now it's a rarity. I guess I just try to eat my Protein first.

I have good restriction, and Pasta doesn't go down real well for me. I try it now and again, but I don't crave or miss it like I thought I would. Once something makes you miserably uncomfortable you'll find that you're ok with not having it anymore.

I can eat macaroni & cheese very easily. I have a good fill & cannot eat breads & lots of other white flour stuff. However, Mac & Cheese is no problem. I tried a place of spaghetti the other day & I ate about 10 bites & then I was done. I started getting that pain in my chest. I think it's a little different for everyone.

I don't like white Pasta so I only use whole wheat. I have had whole wheat spaghetti noodles in marinara sauce and in an italian dressing/vegetable salad with no problems. I did take small bites and cut up my pasta before i use it.

just think Protein first, veggies next , and carbs if there if room. I got my first fill last week and am eating less but not as little as i thought. I am battling the monthly hormone demon and eating my way thorough life one small portion at a time but maintaining weight loss. Next week i will lose big. I lost 6 lbs last week. I just try to remember protein first..... Pasta is no problem at all. I just dont want to fill up on it since there is limited protein.
