Hm.

I had half of a crunchwrap suprme from Taco Bell tonight and it went down great, in fact I'm putting it in the slider category.

I didn't eat that half all at once. I had a quarter at about 6 and another about 9:30. Since all I ate was a New whey liquid Protein shot all day I was pretty ready to fill up Mr. Tantrum

I can also eat eggface pizzas with lc tortillas.

One thing i really can't manage is a bean burrito. I think there's too much Fiber and it's too dense.

So far, there is nothing I can't eat. :blink: Not that I have tried too much crappy stuff or anything. But I have used whole wheat tortilla with my homemade hummus, yummy. Of course, it's very filling, very fast -- I can't fit much in.

I am 6 weeks out from surgery and 23 lbs down (sleeved on 08/15/23).

Can I eat a low carb tortilla with cheese and chicken? Has anyone else tried?

I’m past the soft diet and now on a regular diet, so I’m scared to try new things. I’ve been very careful and haven’t been sick yet (knock on wood).

I had one around that time and it was fine. If you are worried just have a bite and see how it sits in your stomach.

these may not be appropriate at early stages, but I really like the La Banderita Carb Counter street taco tortillas...they're tiny (as you might imagine, the size of a street taco, maybe 5 in round), but they're only 20 calories and I don't think any net carbs. I make little quesadillas, Breakfast tacos, put mozzarella and turkey pepperoni inside and dip them in pizza sauce, etc.

What about hard shell tortillas? I could not eat soft shell pre-op but really enjoy that crunch.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
