Can anyone suggest replacements for bread and potatoes?

Try spegetti squash in microwave for 12minuets depends on what size. Also trust God of all creation for your baby and yourself. He will

Ole Xtreme Wellness brand has a high fibre low carb tortilla that is very good; I'm not a big bread eater, but my hubby likes the Arnold/Brownberry (same company) smooth texture high fibre bread. (0 calories and 8 grams of fibre.

If you must have bread buy Ezekiel bread. It's pretty good toasted.

This! Love Ezekiel bread...in the freezer section. They've also come out with ezekiel tortillas. 100% sprouted grains, no flour, and fantastic I don't eat a lot of bread to begin with, but I use this kind of bread for an open-faced sandwich (one slice) and add a fruit or vegetable on the side in place of the other slice.

You don't have to give up the bread and potatoes if you don't want to. I chose to give up the fat and animal products and I am now healthier than I have ever been, eating up to 80% carbs/day. Both my husband and myself are off of ALL our medications (high blood pressure, heart arrythmia, acid-reflux, etc). I really love my potatoes, particularly red and golden, although I do admit to rarely eating bread.

There's a lot of science and studies out there to support whichever type of diet you wish to pursue. Just like the Paleo followers who believe that the science they quote is accurate, I too feel that the science behind my diet is sound. Clearly, most of us can agree that the SAD (Standard American Diet) is harmful and is causing heart disease, cancer and diabetes. It's the details where we cross paths. I encourage you to do your research, read the studies, read who sponsors the studies and make your own conclusions.

Bread: Sara Lee 45 Calories. 90 calories for two slices

what every one else said! sweet potatoes and whole grain bread! if you don't like whole grain, there are the sandwich thins. i believe they are about 110 cals/ sandwich unlike regular bread thats ~200/sandwich.

also there is ezekiel bread, its in the frozen section. i like it, i use it for open face sandwiches and toast. its loaded with good stuff and ~80cals per slice depending which variety you buy.

Burgen's Linseed bread is about the lowest carb on the UK market, but it's still a lot of carbs per slice. Bread is a carb concept, so no real substitute that is low carb.

Rice cakes, 1/2 of sweet potato,edemame (high protein, but also high calories) double up on veggies fill half your plate with veggies,

I replace all my potatoes with cauliflower! Mashed cauliflower is the BEST! Just prepare it like you would mashed potatoes!

This works better IMO with parsnips. You can treat parsnips pretty much exactly like potatoes. They're just a little trickier to find. GREAT flavor though.

Hey guys

I'm fairly new here and i find it a struggle to cut down my carbs! I'm eating more protein, but find it hard to cut out bread and potatoes, can anyone suggest replacement's or any advice? I swear i will turn in to a slice of bread the way i'm goin!

Thanks in advance

As you cut out carbs you will crave them less and less, High fiber bread is very satisfying
Potatos, there is no replceing them, I love them. but only allow myself 1 baked potato
a week. Steamed califlower with butter is alot like potatoes.

I make sandwiches with Arnolds Multigrain Sandwich thins which are only 100 calories. For mashed potatoes...you can substitue cauliflower.

^^^^^this^^^^ my in laws do atkins pretty regularly, and my SIL used to bring "mashed faux 'tatoes" to thanksgiving. If done correctly, they taste pretty darn good! and the texture can be almost the same....
