I miss bread.

I knew this was going to be the hardest part since prior to surgery, I never met a carb I didn't like. I am craving bread like there is no tomorrow. I want a darn sandwich. PB & J, BLT, tuna melt.....I just want a damn real sandwich. It is making me so mad. I told someone at work today if I had a fairy godmother I would ask for my old stomach for one day so I could eat a sandwich (with bread!). I know it is a head thing but I WANT A SANDWICH! ::stomping feet like a three year old::

Ooooopppssss.....I should have added that bread is the one thing that just does not sit right in my pouch.

Yeap. I miss it. Then I had it. It was great. Tehn the pain started. And lasted for few hours while the bread (the bread ball) was moving slowly in my insides. Since then - I no longer wnat bread. well... I want it - but the memory of the pain .... is still so strong that I just atke one look at it - and walk away...

Half a sandwich on whole wheat bread is fine. You can still eat bread now and then, just in moderation. There is this bread called Sandwich Thins, which is round, really thin sliced whole wheat bread for small sandwiches that I like.

Do you eat 1/2 of the round? I may have to try this. I think I will do it at home the first time, though. There is nothing worse than being at work with an angry pouch!

Those darn French bread ads are making me salivate. Not that I'm doing perfectly, or even well, but I do believe I'm glad to give up bread in exchange for the bit of weight I've lost.

But oh, the crust...the doughy innards...drool

Nope! It's a trigger food for me, needless to say, and it's out of my life for the foreseeable future. Forever, I hope.

bread is on my plan too - wraps sit fine. which for me, is the problem. I start to crave it, want it, justify it in smaller amounts, then from there i will 'estimate' a serving. bread is a slippery slope for me, at least it always has been in the past.
