corn or flour tortillas???



Recommended Posts

so i'm getting close to mushie stage and was tossing around food ideas with my sister this afternoon. talking about that had us talking about foods for later in general and she asked about quesadillas. she knows how much i love quesadillas and how i just got a quesadilla maker at christmas and have only used it like two times. so i'm curious... will i still be able to eat tortillas once i hit regular foods? i mean, flour ones are like bread so i'm thinking that's a no go, but what about corn ones? anyone know anything about eating corn tortillas?? and would it matter if they were white or yellow?

def wait until regular food stage but neither are on my surgeons no no list. I personally cannot do either but I get stuck on weird things like scrabled eggs and am find with giant slices of cake so you just have to find out what works for you

I can do corn tortillas just fine. I have taken a few small bites of flour tortillas, but I treat them like and bread and don't each much of them at all.

well, maybe corn will work for me then. i sure hope i can still have at least a piece of a quesadilla every now and then! oh and ashley.... that must be hard being able to stomach "bad" things but not others. wow! i bet you gotta have some kinda willpower! i dunno if i'd be able to say no to the big piece of cake if i knew it wouldn't make me sick.

Corn is easier, 1 small bite of flour caused minor discomfort, and I dont have any restriction.

I've eaten low carb flour tortillas since I got the go ahead for regular food. I love them and eat them quiet often. I make a Breakfast "burrito" with them, use them for my tacos and even make lunch with them by putting, cheese, meat and veggies in it as a roll up. I don't eat the regular ones though, only the low carb ones. They're awesome and I've never had a problem with them. For all my food though, I do put them in the microwave for 30 seconds to make them a little more dry. Works great for me. :confused:

I have had a wrap but not really sure if it was flour or corn but as long as I took my time and chewed it was ok

I can eat flour tortillas, and I have 4.2cc in my band. They didn't bother me. I tried Pizza Crust, and it hurt a little. I don't chew well enough though. I am learning.

Low carb tortillas taste like wet cardboard to me , I use whole wheat ones and they work great.

They have whole wheat, spinich, sundried Tomato tortillas, i would opt for one of those. instead of using 2 pieces of tortillas, use one and fold in 1/2..remember our eyes are bigger than out stomachs..hope your doing well!

I use wheat or corn as well, but I can get down flour okay if I chew--I like baking them to make chips--easier to get down as they are not as doughy.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
