DeadSpaceGrave 53 Posted December 16, 2019 Ok so i was thinking of making myself a healthy meat wrap with butter lettuce, easy melt cheese, and black Forrest Ham. I then made the wrap out of 1 tortilla and i was only able to eat half taking my time with chewing good. I felt better eating this tortilla wrap than with the sandwhich i had the other day . I guess its because its thinner? I have also heard of other substitutes you can buy that are egg related bread wraps? or do you have one you recommend for me to buy somewhere? I feel pretty great after eating it and i did alot of yard work cleaning up garden beds today . thanks, and im finally out of this plateau. I guess i needed some carbs to kick it! 🤗 1 Lynda486 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[emoji847]I eat flatbread made from flax and I put ground beef in it. It tastes delish and is instead of bread. Goes down really well Sent from my SM-G950U1 using BariatricPal mobile app 2 catwoman7 and Lynda486 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Darktowerdream 421 Posted December 16, 2019 (edited) I used to like ole extreme wellness high Fiber low carb tortilla wraps, or Tumaros carbwise wraps either ancient grains, flax, or 7 grain with chia. I think they rebranded since I bought them last in fresh Market. https://www.tumaros.com/tm-products also I used to buy great low carb bread company Bread and Bagels. For example a bagel is 120 calories, 16 grams carbs, 14 grams fiber, 14 grams Protein. They make a nice thin Pizza Crust too. And made of healthier ingredients. I usually would get it from Netrition.com but this is their website https://greatlowcarb.com i forgot, if you like burgers ... smart Buns ... zero carbs and low calories https://smartbakingco.com/shop/sesame-smartbun-4-pack/ Edited December 16, 2019 by Darktowerdream Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
catwoman7 11,220 Posted December 16, 2019 I've used Flat Out products a lot. They're a lower carb flatbread you can use as a wrap. some people on an other bariatric site I'm on use wraps that are made of cheese. I've seen them in the store but have never tried them. 1 lvidacovich reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GradyCat 3,695 Posted December 16, 2019 Nope, one year post-op sleeve and I still can't eat bread or tortillas. They give me the foamies. My stomach doesn't like anything doughy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

candir 0 Posted December 16, 2019 There is cheese folios. They look like tortillas but made out of cheese. Very good. Plus Walmart has tortillas that are only 3 net carbs. Sent from my SM-G975U using BariatricPal mobile app Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yup, same here. Flatout is really good and I like the cheese wraps, but a lot of calories for me right now due to all the fat. I'll be good for later and for making hard shell tacos!

ms.sss 15,718 Posted December 16, 2019 If you are not adverse to making your own, I've used this recipe and I like it (so does the fam, who are regular carb eaters, lol): https://www.ruled.me/low-carb-tortillas/ 132 cals per serving, 2.1 NET carbs. P.S. You can further lower the calorie and fat content by substituting the butter ingredient in all or in part 1 AliciaKC reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
