Eating this right now.... Moms had a doctors appointment and on the way back we picked up a sandwich to split. I just yanked the bread off of my half and served my moms with bread. 

I'm posting this for some of the newer peeps to see how easy and satisfying post-op life can be.....!!!

Very satisfying without feeling deprived

Do this same thing frequently - especially when traveling!

I had to do something similar to this at an all-day event a few weeks back. They ordered subway, and I had a plain chicken sub with guacamole, tossed the bread. I was satisfied and didn't feel excluded from the meal, and I wasn't the only one ditching the bread and just eating sandwich guts!

For those who have a "jimmy Johns" chain near them, you can order the sandwich in a lettuce wrap so it comes all wrapped up, breadless.  Jimmy Johns also delivers.

 

For those in the DC Metro area, you can go to Elevation Burger and get the burger in a lettuce wrap without bread.  And those burgers are small (as in appropriately sized).

Great point.  It is easier than we believe.  I have to eat a lot of catered meals and meals out.  Skipping the carb / crap is easier that you would thing.

At the local diner, the chef was great & made me a breadless rueben. I enjoyed half and took the other half & the side salad home. Had to fight off my husband for the leftovers!
