Have you ever tried the low carb wraps, Flat Out? I am only a week out, so I cannot try them yet but I used to eat them often while low carbing. They make several varieties in the 7 - 10 carb range.

Corn is better than flour as far as feeling bulky after you eat it.

I have low carb ones, 5 carbs per tortilla. They're not the best tasting, but I can handle it ok. Only can ever eat half though and that's because I make a wrap with lots of meat and stuff.

The chicken cool wrap from chick fil a is good too, still can only eat a few bites of that.

Yes, I started eating a tortilla on occasion around 2 months out. They help satisfy my need for a sandwich. I use La Tortilla Factory brand which have 6 net carbs. They are a little chewier than other brands but tasty.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
