[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Trying to get rid of the pandemic weight gain. I took a good look at what I've been eating lately and it's a lot of bread. I eat bread with every meal and sometimes the bread is the meal. I need to cut this out. Someone suggesting to me to eating high protein to make myself too full to eat or want the bread but I also don't like meat especially beef and for religious reasons I don't eat pork. Has anyone else who really loves bread successfully cut it out of your diet? How? What did you replace it with? [/quote]

It might be worth investing in a few sessions with a registered dietician/nutritionist. Cutting bread out completely can be a real setup for failure, in my opinion,  it is very difficult to do long term for nearly anyone, (especially if you truly love it). and is not necessarily even advisable. It's a major food group but also, not all bread is created equally. There are things you can do like limiting amounts, eating it earlier in the day, fasting and exercising, eating keto bread, etc that allow it a place without it being the foundation of your diet and eating it excessively. I would start with reducing the amount you eat versus cutting it out completely. And yes, you are probably not eating enough protein and veg and a nutritionist would probably start there with you. You are likely spiking your insulin with bread, then are hungry soon after, eat more bread, etc. It's a vicious cycle because you are not satiated or satisfying your hunger with enough protein.
