Hi all,
I was just banded last week here in NYC, so I'm a bit far away from trying this particular food again, but I have to know: Does anyone have trouble eating brown bread? I fell in serious love with it on my first trip to Ireland 20-some years ago, and just recently discovered that Amazon sells quick-bread mixes from McCann's here in the U.S. I'll give it up if I must, of course, but I thought I'd do some informal research first. Thanks!

Congrats on having the surgery, hope you have fantastic success with it. As for which bread you will be able to eat, well as a general rule of thumb, bread is a no no once you get good restriction which for most people is by their third or fourth fill. But I do know banded people who eat our great brown bread, albeit, very slowly and usually sliced very thinly and sometimes toasted twice, but its not impossible. I would say to you to enjoy an odd slice of bread whiile you can, even though you've been banded it will probably be a couple of months before your restriction level will prevent you from having it.
