Sometimes it's hard to tell which is fake whole wheat bread and which is real whole wheat bread. Oftentimes, you think you're being healthful because you're eating whole wheat bread, but when you look at the ingredients it's white bread, or half and half, with brown ingredients such as syrup or molasses to make it a pretty color.
Always read the ingredients to make sure that what you're getting is real whole wheat bread, and not bread that's brown.

You need a plan, Amother. Not just calories or fat. You need certain nutrients.

No, I just controlled portions and made a mental cheshbon of calories every single day (except chagim and shabbos), made sure drank enough water, no more regular soda just diet stuff.
The keyword: patience.
It took me a year.

My sister lost 100 lbs several times. Now that she's close to 50 years old, it took her a year to lose significantly less. She did Diet Ceter and Weight Watchers.
I lost 26 lbs in 5 mos using the Food Pyramid as a guide.

yes there are lots of whole wheat breads that are fattening, cuz they have extra sweetners or fats to make them taste better. if u look at the ingrediants or calories of some whole wheats ull be very surprised. some whole wheat bread is made with margerine!

According to Weight Watchers, whole wheat bread is the same calories as white bread (but less filling, so they recommend it)
