Can we eat the carb watch wrap bread? I haven't tried any bread and was wondering. I will be two month out next Sunday.

My program guide mentioned that a lot of people had a problem with bread for the first months post op. At two months out, I couldn't eat bread. It made me feel terrible. Later, I was able to eat a few bites of crust and now I can easily eat bread and it might be a slider (haven't eaten enough to find out).

Other than the fact it might not set well, it's not a good nutrition source at 8 weeks. You should be concentrating on Protein and if you are eating protein at each meal, you probably won't have room for any bread.

Just my two cents: YMMV.

Thank you so much! I appreciate any input that I can get. I probably wouldn't eat any anyway. This stall that I'm experiencing is kind of depressing.

Sorry for the stall. It will pass!

I have seen the Flat Out foldover wraps & heard that half of one is usually a good size for us. They are low carb & have some protein. I haven't tried them yet, since I'm just 6 weeks out, but plan to try at some point.

I'm 7 1/2 months out and still can't eat bread. I have 1/2 a sandwich thin toasted that I put canned chicken and mayo on for lunch but I can't seem to eat a whole one yet. Everyone is different though and since I'm a carb addict I think it's a good thing that bread doesn't sit we'll for me.

I can't each much bread at all. It doesn't sit well & makes me feel horrible. Bread really isn't my friend these days and I'm ok with that because there really isn't much room after I eat my protein first, & veggies second.

I got cleared for low carb tortillas/wraps etc. I had a Special K flat bread and I can handle half the bread (take the top off) ... whole thing makes me feel sick.

I ate 3/4 of a flour tortilla 1.5 weeks post op and was paying for it the next day. It's wasn't too bad but had bad reflux and didn't really eat much that day.

I have to admit - tortillas are one thing I still don't eat much of at over two years out. I can eat tortilla chips, but the flour tortilla - I swear I can feel it swelling as soon as a take a couple of bites. I can eat 1 small corn tortilla.

It was soo yummy. I took about half of it off (burrito) since they wrap it a million times. But I'll never do that again. Will just eat the inside stuff.
