    Hmmm...what exactly do you think bread is made of?

    I think this might be a language barrier ...do you mean wheat is wholemeal ie brown?

    So eat white bread ...it has fewer calories ..I regularly have white toast and basmati rice but prefer whole wheat pasta

    Well, rye bread is tasty, so is pumpernickel. Nothing wrong with white bread though.

    Nope eat the white bread. You can eat white rice too. When someone says a food is bad for you just smile, nod and make it fit into your day :)

    You can even eat stuff like in my picture

    Don't worry, most of us have done that at one time or another ...I threw away everything I thought I knew, every advice, article, rule and gimmick and just stuck to calorie defecit

    It works

    And I eat everything - bread, cheese, chocolate, ice cream, chips, wine ..nothing is out of bounds

    Try it

    Exactly! When I started I thought I knew what I was doing... nope no clue.

    Learned to keep it simple worry about the deficit and you figure out a little more as you go along

    The only food that's bad for you is food that has expired and gone bad. Eat what you prefer in moderation.

    I don't like white bread, simply because it's bland. sourdough is my go to. If you want a "healthier" bread go for something with grains in it. In the end though they're all much of a muchness

    I feel the same way about white bread being too plain. I do eat it sometimes. Recently I discovered these herb ciabatta buns at the Walmart bakery, and they're so yummy. I've been eating sandwiches on them every day for a week, lol.

    I would join the group saying go ahead and eat the white bread!

    However, if you are wanting some suggestions of new bread type things to try for your work sandwiches, you could give wraps (tortillas), panini bread or pita bread a try!

    It's not "bad" for you. It's not as nutritious as 100% whole wheat bread (with minimal ingredients), but no, it's not "bad" per se.

    If you don't like 100% whole wheat, don't eat it. :smile:

    I prefer whole wheat bread, personally. But not everyone does.

    Well, even though that's what I thought it was, it still looked yummy. I wonder if that's a bad thing? Reminds me of this episode of Friends where Joey says "is it okay if I still think it looks delicious. " :)

    I prefer wholegrain bread myself or any bread with pumpkin or sesame seeds in it but sometimes you can't beat an oul slice of fresh white bread toasted lashings of butter melted with a big mug of tea. Yum I just can't eat it too often as I get bloating and stomach cramps but now and again its worth it.

    Sometimes I buy those make your own bread just add water packets as well as water I add my favourite fillings such as raisin and walnuts or sun dried tomatoes, have them with my favourite home made soup delish!

    As everyone has said everything in moderation, balance is key and once you are in your calorie goal you won't go far too wrong.

    Enjoy your bread :)

    I've cut down because it isn't worth the calories to me. Ham, vegetables, and cheese are great in an omelet, or you can wrap up brick cheese in deli meat.

    But like everyone else says, there is nothing wrong with it, you will lose weight while eating it as long as you're in a deficit, and sometimes you have to throw out things people tell you or that you read in Women's Health.
