Hi - I dont think the bread thing is just restricted to banders, i'm a bypasser and until very recently i had to avoid bread.
Bread swells up inside the pouch really quickly and feels really uncomfortable, toasted bread doesn't tend to swell as much, therefore thats why others seem to manage toasted much better.
Breads a difficult thing to live without at first, its supprising how much of our diet revolves around bread or bread products.
I've only just started eating bread again now, though i must stress i'll only manage a single slice of wholemeal and only on special occassions, like a sunday breakfast etc !
