As for "Wheat Belly," that book is a joke. Horribly cherry picked data and sensationalistic tabloid journalism at its finest. The author was way more interested in selling books than in actual facts.
I have not read this exact book, but there are those of us out here to who this is a real thing. If I eat bread / wheat/ gluten, my stomach does swell, and it is not exactly a very nice sensation. While maybe this publication throws it out of proportion, but Gluten Intolerance, and Celiacs disease are real and true things.0 -
All in moderation. I try to have bread/carbs for 2/3 meals. for example, oatmeal at breakfast and a sandwich at lunch, only veggie/soy carbs for dinner.0

I love bread. I will admit however I did cut back drastically. Moderation is the key. If I can't live with the changes I'm making for the rest of my life, I'm not going to do it. I can cut back on bread, I can up my protein, but I can't take bread completely out because I do love it so very much. I eat one slice a day. I WAS eating up to 4 slices a day. So.... I'd say moderation in my opinion.0

I don't really eat bread because I just don't like it! I am sort of a low carb eater by default...I am not a huge fan of most grain based stuff (whole wheat pasta and porridge are about my only grain based carbs). It's like anything though...if I liked bread, I'd eat it...no point cutting out stuff you like, this is meant to be a change for life, not a short term fix.0

I eat bread everyday more than once. I have lost quite a lot of weight without ever cutting out or even decreasing my bread intake. I would say I still have anywhere between 2-4 slices everyday.
Your mileage might vary but I am very wary of 'experts' who demonize a food group in general.0 -
I've done low carb, I've read Wheat Belly, I've read Taubes, et al.
I had 6 slices of bread today.
I think I'll be OK0 -
I ate nothing but bread yesterday and woke up 1/2 a pound lighter. I don't think any one food is going to make you fat. Rather, I think that eating EVERY food in front of you will. You can also google the guy that lost weight eating twinkes.
Portion control.0 -
My boyfriend cut bread out only to loose that stubborn bit of chub underneath his belly button! It worked for him but hasn't worked that well for me.0

OP:
Looking at your diary, you need to take your typical daily intake, and ADD a Peanut Butter Sandwich, and some bacon. On any kind of bread you want.
Seriously, get a few extra hundred calories in there before you collapse....
I agree. Why are you starving yourself?0
