    Honestly, I know it's 100 calories a piece (not much of a bread eater here) but I love Fiber One whole wheat bread..it has 7 grams of fiber and 5 grams of protein!

    I would love to try the Ezekiel or sprouted kinds but I can never find them....

    The bloating comes from too quick fermentation process used in supermarket cheap bagged/sliced bread.

    Go for an artisan sourdough bread if you absolutely have to. Or try Rye or Spelt bread - easier to digest than wheat.

    Have you tried Ezekiel Breads? You find it in the freezer at most supermarkets. I noticed on previous answer that it doesnt contain flour. Wrong info, it does have flour that is made from sprouted grains.

    I find Nature's Own 100% Stone Ground Whole Wheat bread to be delicious and very good for you. A lot of "whole wheat" bread, I have heard, is not truly whole wheat, and not any better for you than white flour. I do know this has worked well for me. I lost 22 lbs and, being in a college dorm where I can't use anything to cook besides a microwave, this is one on my staple foods. Also, it has 50 calories per slice, with only 1 gram of sugar.

    I got a bread machine. I know exactly what goes in my bread, so I knwo what each slice costs me in terms of calories and OH MY LORD it makes supermarket bread taste like cardboard. I figure if I am going to be only having a LITTLE bread it should be delicious.

    My fave bread mixes whole oats, then half 100% whole wheat flour and half white bread flour.

    It's awesome.

    I also make my own bread. I perfected a recipe that makes a 2 lb loaf and I know exactly what goes in it. Here is the recipe if you are interested.

    Whole Wheat Oatmeal Bread

    1 1/2 cups water
    2 tablespoons and 2 teaspoons honey
    2 tablespoons and 2 teaspoons butter, softened
    1 2/3 teaspoon salt
    2 tablespoons and 2 teaspoons powdered milk
    2 1/4 cups flour (I use a multigrain flour)
    1 1/3 cup whole wheat flour
    1/2 cup rolled oats
    1 1/4 teaspoon yeast


    Directions:
    Choose the following settings: 2 lb loaf, whole grain or whole wheat setting, regular crust. Add ingredients to bread machine in order directed listed. Don't let the yeast touch any liquid. About 121 calories a slice.

    By the way, it tastes awesome!
