    If I were you I would just ditch the love of bread entirely. There's nothing breadlike that isn't also carby as hell. You can use other things (lettuce, etc.) as sandwich wraps, like those above me suggested, but they will not resemble bread at all.

    If you stop eating bread for long enough and remind yourself all the time that it's a carb explosion and will make you fat and bloated, pretty soon you won't miss it. That's what I did. And I used to GORGE on bread. I loved it so much. Now I can only stand it in small doses once in a blue moon.

    Bread is just about the most useless food ever... almost as bad as candy, white rice and sugary soda...

    that might be the best way. just bite the bullet and kick the habit, especially with bread costing more than milk, about $4.50-$5.50. if only I could do it with chocolate too. I'm gonna try two weeks without bread, do lettuce wraps that some of you suggestion and see if it makes a difference. thanks all :)

    At home I eat sandwich slenders, whole grain pita, or a tortilla maybe two or three times a week. But in a good restaurant with excellent bread, I eat it and just work in the calories. It's a special treat.

    It could be that you are gluten intolerant, so, you should try a gluten free bread and see if that works for you.
