OMG ! How were the tacos themselves? Any texture or tastes differences?

The tacos were GREAT! The texture was spot on for a regular tortilla. Taste-wise, they weren't overly flavorful, but I find multigrain wraps tend to have a little bit of a bland flavor to them, so it wasn't anything unusual. And really, the flavor comes from what you're putting in the tortilla more than the tortilla itself!

That's crazy - Crazy good!

What was the brand again?

They also have low-carb (not 1-carb) in multigrain and pico de gallo that are presumably regular sized rather than street taco size...and regular carb tortillas in more varieties.

Made a Gardien ultimate burger with mustard, dill relish, spicy banana peppers, and tomatoes with homemade refried fat free vegan cheesy (nutritional yeast) black Beans.

The burger was just okay. Should’ve cooked for a shorter time. Loved the refried beans.

Based beans off this but added tons of garlic and a small diced yellow onion and 2 cups of vegetable broth instead of Water.

Also ended up eating most of the leftovers later on but still ended up scraping some in the trash.

These are more like wraps, but they work well as tortillas, 5 g net carbs and 9 g Protein.

Sophie7713, Looks absolutely FANTASTIC!! The perfect amount of char on the peppers...did you grill this? And yes, I believe filet mignon will be easier to digest here, too. After years of gas grilling, hubby and I decided to go back to the Weber Kettle Charcoal Grill for the flavor that we love. Delivered last week, haven’t used it yet, but this looks like a great dish to try😋. Thanks for idea!💖

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      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
