I was just wondering, how long out is it that you can have breads? I'm not big on breads but just wondering if that's something you pretty much give up forever.

Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

I am 15 months (wow) out, and I eat bread but very very little and only once in a while. When I do I chew chew chew basically mush, and I only eat hot french bread from wally world. I do find that tortillas help with my bread cravings, we have a little mexican place that has the best tortillas, so I keep a couple in the fridge and warm em up.

I have had a 1/4 piece of toast. Dry. It was White Wheat bread. I put a tomato on it to make tomato toast. I made sure it was full of the tomato juice. They seem to think dryer stuff dont go down so good so all of mine right now is juicy.

See I asked my surgeon what he thought about it. He told me It was not much different than crackers. If you can tolerate it. He did ask that I not go over a half a piece a day. I wont be doing that. I did it to satify a craving for tomato toast I had. I know right now I would have to have it toasted. Perhaps later not toasted but right now I dont trust the softness of it. I have no idea if this helped or not but mabye so.

I don't plan on eating it. I was just curious. If/when I do, I will eat the low carb wraps. I wasn't big on bread even before my surgery. It wasn't ever one of things I felt like I had to have. I guess that's a good thing.

Christy,

I was kidding with my post! I have bread... ON occasion. I stick with whole wheat, and I toast it. I don't have it very often, and I miss having hamburgers WITH buns or sandwiches. I've tried to avoid it mostly (along with other WHITE foods; rice/pasta/potatos) because of the carbs!

Doc says untoasted, it can ball up and block the stoma...!

It just isn't worth eating to me right now. I can't hold enough of the things I'm suppose to be having right now, much less any bread or wraps.
