    whats wrong with bread? if you are gluten sensitive there are breads with no gluten out there.

    if you are worried about carbs...dont...carbs arent bad...unless its all you eat..otherwise as long as you are getting healthy whole grains and the rest of your macros you'll be fine.

    Why dont you make your own bread? i got myself a bread maker and i can therefore control what goes into it. i dont put in salt or sugar and use wholemeal flour or sometimes gluten free and tastes even better than the store bought stuff.

    Or consider what meals of the day you have bread and plan ahead, so if you usually have toast for breakfast, change that to oatmeal, or if you have sandwiches for lunch, substitute for soup or salad.

    Bread isnt all bad, just change over from white to brown/wholemeal or wheat free and eat in moderation :o)

    To try something different you can buy big sandwich size crackers and rice cakes. I've been eating mountain (flat) bread), it's not as delicious, but still a nice wrap for a sandwich, and instead of needing 2 pieces you only need the one...

    Pancakes??? Make you own savoury (ham, cheese, corn etc) or sweet ones (apple and cinnamon, berry)? Good snack, lunch food

    Hi Chris - have you tried pitta bread? You can get them in wholemeal or white - heat them up in the toaster cut them open and fill them with the filling of your choice! Healthy alternative to bread and you feel like you are eating the equivalent to a sandwich. I have one for my lunch during the week - easy to prepare and tasty!

    Good Luck - Sharon

    Try pitas or flat wraps. They're considerably lower in carbohydrate in most cases.
