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!

Just ordered 6 packs! Thank you for the feedback!

I think I am overestimating my eating capabilities and only expect to make it through two of these.

Rotisserie chicken (because I was lazy) heated in enchilada sauce, refried Beans, a little queso fresco crumbled, and some salsa...all on the 1-Carb Tortillas.

Yep...definitely overestimated! But so yummy!

I've been making some tasty meals but my phone is dead and I havent been able to take pictures! 😭 Come on pixel 5/iphone 12...

My recent fav has been shiozake, japanese salted salmon. Cut salmon into 2 oz filets, marinate in sake for 10 mins, pat dry and coat in salt. Line a tupperware with paper towels and stick it in the fridge. Broil on a sheet pan for 5 mins, no need to flip. I do this for Breakfast every morning these days, so easy and good

This has always been my favorite cut style of salmon

@GreenTealael Happy belated Yom Kipur! How was the fasting? Did you feast afterwards?

Last night's dinner, forgot to take after pic, I was only able to eat half of it.

Soybean spaghetti with my favorite homemade beef sauce! 😋 I'm still not sure about the noodle texture though, but it did the trick for now.

Wanted to switch up my breakfast by trying to eat a carb heavy breakfast instead and it didn’t go well 🤦🏻‍♀️

I made chia seed pudding out of the strawberry fairlife Protein Shake and topped it with 1 banana, 1kiwi, 1 peach, 5 black berries, 2 tbsp of blueberries, and 1 tbsp of almond granola. Everything was good and I enjoyed it but I was not full. I know it’s carbs but I would think after all that I would be somewhat full.

I might try this again but with oatmeal and less fruit. Anyways, Avo toast with two eggs on zero carb bread was my dinner since I missed it so much.

Thanks ♥️, I eased out of it with just liquids then light fare. As always (on Yom Kippur) I was not hungry while fasting.

Major splurge today. Thai rolled ice cream. This was banana, Nutella and it was sooo good. I ate 1/4 of it, although I could have polished it off!

Before, (minus 2 bites) and after. My son gladly finished the rest!

Fiber waffle w/ avocado and burger

So I made my BF traditional waffles for a breakfast sandwich this morning (from scratch) and I decided I wanted a waffle too.

I wasn't going ruin my day by eating a traditional waffle because I haven't since RNY conversion so I had no clue how I would react.

I decided to make a fiber waffle (NOT chaffle 🤮) to use a a vehicle for avocado. Added a thin strip of leftover burger from dinner. It was really decent.

Made like traditional scratch made waffles but subbed fiber powder for flour.

The first is imitation crab meat salad made with light mayo, gochujang, fish sauce, and soy sauce and tossed with orange peppers and kimchi. I ended up eating it over 2 meals and my kids pilfered my leftover nori from the first meal.

The second is a weird tart I made from fat free vegetarian refried black Beans, cheddar cheese, tomatoes and an extreme wellness spinach tortilla. Ended up eating 3 slices and the rest might go in the garbage because the bottom didn’t crisp and I’m not about to eat soggy tart. 😬

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
