What is your dietitian’s carb and Protein goals per day? Are you logging it in a food app to know how many carbs you eat in a day?

If you can tolerate it and you're not overdoing it, I'd say it's okay. I still can't eat bread, especially something soft like a tortilla or it gives me the foamies.

It depends on where you are in the process. I'd eat something like that *now*, but I wouldn't have the first few months post-op. Not that it's bad for you, but you don't have a lot of stomach real estate, and you have to get a lot of Protein in. A whole wheat tortilla has some nutritional value (i.e., fiber), but not a ton. That said, if you've already eaten it, fine - probably no harm done (unless you're REALLY early out).

I have been using the flat tostada. I eat chicken and tuna salad on it. I bought wheat and didn't use it, it spoiled before I could even try it. These tostadas stay good a long time.

If whole wheat breads are on your plan. The only way to eat "too much" is if you go over your calories and carbs for the day.

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

      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?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
