what about atkins and the celebs who never eat bread????
Hi Jewels,
So nice to see you back and I am so glad everything went good with the wedding stuff
Brown/wholemeal bread is not fattening. White bread I wouldn't say is fattening, but it releases sugar in your blood very quickly which is bad. This means it makes you feel so much fuller, but for such a shorter time, in other words it makes you crave for even more. So yes, indirectly, white bread is fattening if you think there is a big quantity of sugar that is released in your bloodstream.
Not all people find bread bloatening (if there is such a word) just people that might be allergic to wheat/gluten.
I would say, give the white bread/rolls a skip and you don't have to feel guilty about eating it....
