Goodmorning MFP... How much bread do you eat per day and what kind of bread do you eat? I recently cut out Sara Lee's multigrain 45 cals per slice bread and have Ezekiel 4:9 Whole Sprouted Grain bread everyday. There's times where I have up to 3 slices.. not sure if this is a good thing or not even if I am staying at my calorie goal.

    Hardly any. For me, bread is my weakness so I usually don't have any in the house. The only time I buy any bread now is if I go on a low calorie sandwich kick for lunch, and I buy the Wonder Smart White.

    I will have either a Thomas Whole Wheat Baget Thin or a whole wheat tortilla a couple of times a weak. My "bread" consumption is way down from what it used to be.

    I have the Peppridge Farm Whole Grain, Double Fiber Wheat bread. I have it every few days. I normally have it toasted with PB. 2 slices.

    I eat as much bread as I want! I don't see it as a big deal if it factors into my goals. I try and have wholemeal but it tastes like cardboard so sometimes treat myself to white or even home bake it :) I wouldn't worry!

    Ezekiel 4:9 Sprouted Grain breads. Low GI, and only 15 carbs per slice. Also, I buy it frozen, so not very convenient to grab and eat. I have it with breakfast 1-2 times a week.

    I rarely eat regular bread because it tends to be calorie dense and carb heavy unless you go for specific brands. I stick to whole wheat tortilla wraps or pita bread and even then, it's only once or twice a week.

    Sara Lee No High Fructose Wheat 150=2 slices
    or
    Orowheat Rounds=100 2 Small slices (great for sandwiches)

    My bread intake depends on my calories for the day. Today ill have 3 slices. 2 for lunch and 1 with a snack. (Most days is 4 = breakfast and lunch)

    Ill cut this down once I get to a point where its hard to lose weight. I think its all a per person, what works for you type thing!

    Some days a couple of slices of Sara Lee Classic Honey Wheat Bread or a Pepperidge Farm Deli Flat. It doesn't bump up my carbs much and it's a quick way to eat back your cals after exercising if you add a bit of peanut butter.

    2 slices of a whole grain, light bread a day for me.

    I think the processed white breads are not a good choice for bread.

    I generally eat a slice a day - Orowheat Healthful or double fiber bread. I NEVER eat white bread. If I eat a sandwich then it's three slices a day. It's within the confines of my calorie goal. I used to think breads, potatoes, etc were evil, but you have to eat in moderation and know what kind of bread to eat so it's beneficial to your body.

    I eat about two slices a day, depending. But I'm a big fan of the Food for Life - Organic 7 Sprouted Grains Bread. Chewy but tasty.

    I am another person that has given up all grains. I no longer eat bread, crackers, oatmeal - anything that is made from grains.

    My only exception is Basmati Rice about once a month.

    If I have bread it's homemade gluten free bread. Every few months I'll splurge and buy GF bagels, but I very rarely eat bread.
