I read somewhere that some soups are allowed on Phase 1. I would love to find out which brand, kind etc. Also, not to rush ahead or anything.....I would like to know what bread would be a good choice to start to reintroduce in Phase 2. I know that the more grainy the better, but maybe someone knows a brand.

Love this board!!!!

I don't know about the soups and I would love to hear the answer, but I think what's meant are soups you make yourself with phase-I-friendly ingredients. I've never made soups from scratch, so I'd also like to know if any brands are allowed.

As far as bread, I'm still in Phase I, but found this list on MizFrog's page:

Breads to Buy

From South Beach Diet Online's Daily Dish.

Why are whole-grain breads better for you than breads made with enriched or refined flour? One reason is that whole-grain breads have a lower glycemic index. Another is that whole grains contain phytochemicals that may help cut the risk of heart disease and cancer. If you're in Phase 2 of the diet and can start eating bread again, here are some good brands to buy:


Pepperidge Farm:

100% Stoneground Whole Wheat

Natural Whole Grain 9 Grain

Natural Whole Grain German Dark Wheat

Pepperidge Farm Natural Whole Grain Crunchy Grains or Multi-Grain

Rubschlager:

European Style Whole Grain

100% Rye Rye-Ola Sunflower

100% Rye Rye-Ola Rye

100% Rye Rye-Ola Pumpernickle

Brownberry:

100% Whole Wheat

Natural 12 Grain

Natural Oatnut

Other:

Nature's Own 100% Whole Wheat

Mrs. Baird's 100% Whole Wheat

Roman Meal 100% Whole Wheat

Arnold 100% Whole Wheat dinner

I do like to make my own soup - but I eat soooo much soup that I like to keep some canned varieties for when I don't have time to cook.

Hi Cathy,

what is the brand of bread that you found with 5-7 grams of fiber? I want to check to see if they have them in the stores where I generally shop to see if I have to go to special stores once I hit phase II. Thanks so much! I do have to say that I'm on day 4 of phase I and haven't been craving bread at all really. But the oatmeal box on top of the fridge has been calling to me! LOL I think I have to hide it. :)

Oatmeal was the first thing I added back when I started Phase 2.
