Looking Ahead 239 Posted July 6, 2012 I wondered about this today...I know we can't have doughy bread...but flour tortilla's? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nate 292 Posted July 6, 2012 I had a half piece of whole grain toast with peanutbutter on it this morning and it didnt bother me any.. I assume something like that, or a wheat wrap or small flour tortilla shouldnt hurt in moderation. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
danyelleb 386 Posted July 6, 2012 I eat the double Fiber bread if I choose to eat a sandwich, and I toast my bread My sleeve doesn't like flour tortillas at all. I don't really tolerate the spinach wraps that well either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
italianlady13 80 Posted July 6, 2012 bread slides right on down for me....no problems with bread/carbs at all.....which is scary.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
butterbean 30 Posted July 6, 2012 I wondered about this today...I know we can't have doughy bread...but flour tortilla's? flour tortillas are on my NUT's very short "never again" list. They tend to make small dough balls that don't digest well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Furby036 60 Posted July 6, 2012 The ones I got are wheat thinwiches. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Butterthebean 8,146 Posted July 6, 2012 I used to eat flour tortillas all the time. Now I make lettuce wraps instead. Much better and very tasty. 2 italianlady13 and WoWGurl78 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Oregondaisy 2,021 Posted July 6, 2012 I love those sandwich thins. I think they are perfect. I always get the whole wheat, and only use half. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jlewis229 191 Posted July 6, 2012 I live the sandwich thins but has anyone tried soft corn shells? I love them and hope I can eat them after my surgery at some point. I like to put cheese in them for a snack.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
clk 3,519 Posted July 6, 2012 Everyone is different. At about four months out I started eating little half sandwiches on those thin rounds and it was an awesome way to up my carb intake and help me have more energy. I am two years out and cannot eat more than one or two bites of tortilla without feeling sick. I can eat tortilla chips but the corn or flour tortillas themselves get stuck and refuse to move. Same with Pasta and rice - I can only do a few bites of each. bread isn't an issue but it's very filling. Toast seems to go down easier, so if you have trouble with the rounds as they are, try toasting them first. ~Cheri Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WoWGurl78 8 Posted July 6, 2012 My friend who is almost 1 year post-op uses the hungry girl flat bread to make her own homemade pizzas. Once I'm allowed more foods, I'm gonna have to try those. I'm gonna ask my doc about the bagel thins aty follow up next week, cos I love the everything ones toasted with one wedge of laughing cow soft cheese spread on top. Of course I know that I won't be able to eat the whole thing but I can make one & cut up in small pieces & save the leftovers for later. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Soon2BMiniMommy 92 Posted July 6, 2012 I have no trouble with any bread, or tortillas, unfortunately. I also use the sandwich thins to make sandwiches, cut in half and save the other half for later. Great vehicle for meat and cheese and veggies You'll notice both the whole wheat and mutigrain ones are both high in fiber and protein....very good stuff!

Looking Ahead 239 Posted July 6, 2012 Stupid question...what is a sandwich thin... I don't think I've seen them. Is it a cracker or a type of bread? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
