    I buy from a little German bakery-7 grain; a delicious coarse bread which I love. I only use one slice at a time.

    It's not low cal but this is my bread preference.

    This is also my bread of choice. Love a bread that makes me sandwiches with 10g of fiber.

    Edit: I just realized, mine looks exactly like this except it's Orowheat brand and not Brownberry. The Orowheat version I get is 80 calories a slice.

    Apparently Orowheat, Brownberry, and Arnold are all made by the same company. It's interesting that yours has a lower calorie count. I wonder if the ingredients are different or if the slices are smaller.

    Ezekiel bread - they have it at Trader Joes in the bread aisle and at Whole Foods in the freezer section.
    It's low carb, low fat, organic and great toasted

    Alvarado St. Bakery. It's sprouted like Ezekiel bread. Flourless. Multigrain. Very yummy 80 cal a slice I think. Eta: I get it in the freezer in the deli sections.

    If you must have bread - get Ezekiel bread.

    Whereas most breads contain added sugar, Ezekiel bread contains none.

    It is also made from organic, sprouted whole grains. The sprouting process changes the nutrient composition of the grains significantly.

    In contrast to most commercial breads, which consist primarily of refined wheat or pulverized whole wheat, Ezekiel bread contains several different types of grains and legumes

    Or if you like wraps, use Flat Out protein up, seasalt and cracked pepper.

    Thank you so much, everyone! I'm going to see which of these my grocery store carries and try some of them out.

    I count carbs, and I second/third/fourth the Dave's Killer Bread. I also eat a Eureka Sweet Baby Grains. It's larger than the Dave's Killer (thin), and about the same nutrition-wise. There's also an Oroweat bread named something like Healthfull that's very low-carb. But...Dave's Killer Nut and Seed (thin if you're counting carbs) or Eureka Sweet Baby Grains. By the way, Sam's Club sells 2-packs of the DKB Nuts and Seeds.

    I love Aunt Millie's Light breads 70 calories for 2 slices and < 20g of carbs. Love it. We go through 2 loaves a week in a family of 3!

    Here's a link to a list of the varieties. We usually get whole wheat, but the potato bread is good too.

    If you have an Aldi store, they have a fit and active wheat bread that has 35 calories per slice (and it tastes good). If not, there is a brand at Walmart (not sure right now of the name) that has 35 calories as well. It is good. I do know the 35 cal is printed on the front in biggish numbers.

    I'm not a fan of Dave's, but it's found in the bread section with the rest of the bread.

    I've been eating tomato sandwiches with this bread:

    It's probably the least nutrient dense thing on the planet, but at 70 calories a slice, I'll live with that. At least until tomato season is over.

    I know most people don't do this but I make my own bread sometimes. I know its fresh, what went in it and I can change it up by adding extras like flax seed, oats, etc. I use my bread machine on the dough selection and it does all the work for me and once its mixed and risen I take it out and bake it. Super easy and doesn't cost much at all for a good healthy bread.

    I make my own bread now. Got tired of wasting calories on sub-par bread.

    I don't have a particular bread of choice at the moment, but back when I ate a sandwich almost every day, I started doing half sandwiches (using just one slice of bread, folded in half) instead with an additional low-cal side. It let me still have the sandwich I wanted, but helped keep my calories down and I discovered a lot of side dishes I don't know that I would have tried otherwise.
