Bread

I eat whole wheat bread now, which I would never touch before I am currently gaining so i have a bit more food...i try not to eat more than 1 slice a day, i have a choice to have 1 slice for breakfast everyother day or I can have 1 slice once in awhile for dinner in oppose to a morning slice...sometimes I get scared to eat it because I'm afraid of how it will effect me...

Make sure the first ingredient is not encriched wheat flour or something to that extent. What that means is they took the good quality out to make the bread, then "enriched" it with synthetic crap such as the thiamine, niacin, reduced iron, etc. By law this allowed. -------------- As far as genetics go, the skies the limit.

I haven't eaten bread without feeling guilty for years. Recently we switched to Ezekiel bread as we are avoiding wheat products, but even that I don't eat much. I'd like to hear some thoughts on this. Thanks. -------------- ~Victoria~ ...Some things have to be believed to be seen!

I don't eat pasta, rice, potatoes, noddles or whatever but I surely cannot give up my bread! I love it too much but the darker the better. With cereals, rye, herbs etc I make my own bread with plenty of egg whites and I even sometimes put some protein powder in! I don't have any problems keeping my weight and still eating bread (I even continue eating bread when I'm on a competition diet) but one problem is that I tend to eat too much bread in one time so my tummy get all bloated.......... -------------- - Nina :o) Les Victoires éternelles sont celles du coeur.

If you want to reduce the amount of bread you're eating, get the bakery to slice it thinner, or cut it thinner at home yourself. -------------- Think you can or think you can't; either way you're right--Goethe
