Hello from a new comer! Keep up the good work everyone. You can do it.
I'm sure this is not the first question on here regarding bread or milk. I just want to make sure that the bread I have chosen will work. First of all, what an ordeal I must say, in finding an appropriate bread..lol I ended up chosing a 100% whole grain bread that has 42g per slice with 3g of fiber. Will this work or is it not enough fiber? I read something about 1oz = 30g and that is a daily serving. How does all that work? Do you have any suggestions about some brands of bread that do work? Or is the one I chose fine.
Also, regarding soy milk.. I first bought some plain Silk Soy Milk but then noticed that it has evaporated cane juice in it. Does this make that choice of soy milk inappropriate? I recently purchased another brand without the evaporated cane juice, but it has brown rice sweetener.. what is that and is it ok to drink.
Thank you so much in advance to anyone who can help clear this up :)

Carol,
Just make sure your pita has 3 grams of fiber per ounce.
There are brands out there with a higher fiber content. It takes some practice figuring this out, but you'll get it. Let us know if you need some help!
I purchased the Ezekiel brand bread. Cathy recommended it to me. She said to come as close as possible to the recommended serving of 3g of fiber per 1oz (30g). This bread has 3g of fiber for 34g per slice. It's just a little bit above the 30g, but this is the closest I have found to the recommendation.
I found it at Albertson's on the shelf, not in the frozen section.
Hope this gives you another idea and helps you out some.
Carla :)
