I have a fondness for all types of rye bread, but here are some quotes from Bill Phillips in "Body for Life."

Whole-Wheat Bread

Usually, when people start the Body-for-LIFE Program, I try to wean them off of bread, crackers, cookies, and other carbohydrate foods that they've been overdosing on, and, although I'm reluctant to "authorize" bread, I do so under the condition that it be whole-wheat bread and that you understand that that a portion of bread generally, unless you've got one big ol' hand, is only two slices of bread or one whole-wheat tortilla.


(Note Phillips teaches portions should not exceed palm or fist size.)

Some of Phillips' other recommendations are to eat 6 small meals a day. This keeps the body from going into starvation mode and reduced metabolism.

Drink at least 10 cups of water a day.

Plan your meals in advance and record what you eat.

And, Once a week, give yourself a free day to eat what you want.

Naturally, it's understood this last one is within reason and doesn't include 2 gallons of ice cream, but dining out once a week is reasonable.
