The Original CarbDown
Disclaimer: I am posting this even though I know most of you from the WW group are told not to even think about eating wraps. That being said...read on.
I have found a new way to wrap up stuff like tuna or chicken salad, taco meat, fajita steak and veggies, etc etc. These wraps are sold at Wal-Mart (I found them on an endcap). They have 6 grams of carbs, no sugar, 9 grams of fiber, and 9 grams of protein per wrap. They are made of wheat, oat, and soybean. I have had tuna salad in one so far (I cut it in half and ate half and put the other half in the fridge for tomorrow). I am going to make some fajita meat with bell peppers and onions Sunday and wrap one up to see how it tastes. I liked the tuna wrap, it was yummy. Just thought I would share this find with everyone.

I think your surgeon and my surgeon must be really similar, Dan~ I ate a lot of wraps after my RNY. I still get the Sweet Onion Chicken Teriyaki Wrap at Subway. Yummy! I am going to go to Wal Mart and get some of those... they sound good!

Mission tortillas come in a whole wheat version, 4 net carbs each for a soft taco sized one. Not as much protein, but they will do in a pinch if you cant find the other ones. I usually put a wedge of light laughing cow chz, sliced turkey breast, lettuce and tomato on mine..yuuuummmm...also, they are really good in place of a burger bun if you are wanting something of that nature.
Yummo...these things have become a staple of my diet, even tho I was reborn and raised by the original carb nazi, Dr. Wongsa, lol

I BOUGHT SOME OF THESE THE OTHER DAY IN ITALIAN HERB FLAVOR AND MADE MYSELF A PIECE OF PIZZA. I PUT PREGO SAUCE, LOW FAT MOZARELLO CHEESE, PEPPERONI, SAUSAGE AND MUSHROOM ON IT AND BAKED IT. I DIDN'T HAVE ANY INTENTION OF EATING THE WRAP BUT I TOOK A BITE AND IT WAS SO CRUNCHY AND GOOD THAT I TOOK ANOTHER BITE AND THEN I WAS DONE. I LOVE HOW I CAN ONLY EAT A COUPLE OF BITES OF SOMETHING AND THEN I'M DONE. BUT THANK YOU FOR THE IDEA ON THE PIZZA. I MAY TRY A SANDWICH WRAP SOMETIME.
