Z, anything particularly special about the ezekiel bread vs. normal 100% WW bread?

I get that it's made with sprouted grains, but not sure about the significance of that.

PS: Congrats on hitting the 150s! :carrot: Do you have a goal weight in mind? At 5'8" you must be getting close!!

shelflife - for me, the sprouted grain breads don't cause cravings and they fill me up. i know that some people are fine with regular whole wheat bread, but if i have it, it turns me into a crazy carb monster for at least a day (usually 2-3) afterward.

Thanks! My final goal is 145, or a size 6...whichever comes first :) We're going to Florida in May, so that is my timeline.
