Hey!

I am currently still getting use to eating food and a lot of things are new for me. I'll be cleared for all foods on March 28th. I was curious did anyone eat low carb wraps or tortillas 2 months out and how did they make you feel?

My family bought me these loven fresh Low carb protein wraps today. While I appreciate the gesture, I won't eat them until later this month and im a bit spooked to try "bread" again. Wondering if they'll sit okay in my stomach? And in general how do you do with Low carb wraps?

All you can do is try them. I still find processed carbs like breads, rice & pasta too heavy & filling. Had a single duck pancake at yum char today & groan & I’m almost three years out. Others successfully eat low carb breads, etc. but many do only from maintenance. Check with your dietician to be sure too.

Gonna avoid for now. I'm too scared. My dietician also just got back to me and said no bread products for 4 months. I froze them haha

when you try the wraps, pls update. I had my RNY Nov 1, 2021, and yesterday i had a wrap from subway, had it cut in 3 pieces, and all i could eat was one part, because of the pain. I also had on friday 5 pieces of chicken wings and puked it up. I hate the pain and still feel safe with liquids.

Oh wow, I'm sorry to hear! I'm going to wait until June to try any Low carb tortillas or bread. I hear chicken can give people problems too. I'm a vegetarian so I haven't found my protein sources to cause any issues. I eat tofu, eggs, cheese, plant based burger meat, chickpea pasta and I'm 34 days post op about. I got really sick eating zuchinnni because they weren't cooked enough and I didn't chew the skins properly. I get being annoyed by the pain. I'm so scared of dumping. Will keep you posted.

Yes, chicken can be too dry & it seems like it gets stuck. You need sauce or gravy to keep it moist or try thigh meat. Much more tender & flavoursome. You should be able to eat a variety if not all solid foods with very few issues. Are you eating slowly? Do you wait between eating & drinking? Are you taking small bites? May be worth a chat with your surgeon & dietician.

Try ordering a wrap without the actual wrap. You get all the filling (protein & salad, dressing or sauce) but not the carbs from the wrap. I’ve done it a couple of times because of limited food choices. Or just eat the inside of the wrap.
