Question:
I had the lap band, can we still eat bread like sandwish or tacos

Well since you had WLS, sandwiches and tacos aren't necessarily what you should be eating, but to answer your question, yes, you can have it, IF you tolerate it. Chances are likely you won't tolerate bread well if you are filled good, I certainly didn't the entire 4 years I had my band. Soft tacos are the same deal. Hard tacos would be easier to tolerate, but less healthy of course.

I agree with the previous poster... if you truly want a sandwich, I would start by toasting the bread... but in the end I usually ate one or two bites, chewwed like crazy, the just went and pulled out the meat and ate that with fork and knife... bread just takes up too much room in you pouch... and it is too easy to get it stuck.
