  1. I wanted to look up low carb tortillas on the group archives, but Google is
    all different to the point that I don't even get this group at all when I
    enter low-carb in the search window. Did they axe us? It is a totally
    different format now. Why did they mess with it? It was fine, before.

    Mission tortillas. Albertson's and Wal-Mart. simply the best!

  4. Wow, you guys are fast! Thanks for the recommendation. I use Mission, too.
    What I wanted to find out was whether anyone here has noticed
    sugar-alcohol-type reactions from them. I have gotten them, but I couldn't
    be sure it was from the tortillas.

    not me. I am looking at a package of whole wheat, fajita size right now.
    There is sucralose in them, but I don't see any sugar alcohol products.

    I don't know how you found it, but that's okay.

    I didn't find it, that's what Google used to use before they changed
    formats. I just bookmarked it.

    I want to start back, but my last several tries have not been
    productive, which makes it hard to stay motivated. I have battled a
    very finicky and sugar-driven taste from the beginning, and prefer
    refined foods (read: junky type foods) which rules out most healthy
    approaches and mind sets.

    Ok, go for plan B - build a diet from foods you like that fit your
    plan. For example:

    Erythritol and protein powder let you make all sorts of LC sweets.

    Of course, don't replace *everything* this way. Just add enough LC
    sweets to keep you on-plan.

    When I looked at the posts for the low carb tortillas, I was hugely
    dismayed to see that there has been some "adjusting" of the carb
    numbers.

    Look for the recipies that have you bake cheese into a thin crispy
    layer, and use that instead.

    My plan this time, is to use my treadmill and ab-lounger to boost me
    over the doldrums of starting back, and to increase my motivation.
    It also may absorb some of the excess calories resulting from a
    fitful start.

    If you're into weight lifting (which you should be), look up
    "depletion workout".

  9. Thanks much for the recipes. A "new food" does wonders and I really like
    cream cheese. The pancakes sound like they would also be good made with
    pecans, since they may be even softer than macs. What do you think? Also,
    the peanut butter thing may be just the ticket to get me past the "yuck"
    factor of healthy peanut butter.

    I don't know. I like the flavor of macs.

  11. Try these Ann, I don't know where you get them in the USA. We like 'em
    although I find that wraps are becoming dry so I get radical sometimes and
    drench them with low carb salsa to get the lubrication in the mouth working.

    see
    that there has been some "adjusting" of the carb numbers. I tend to get
    angry at the messengers, which of course is stupid. I was really counting
    on my favorite "wrap" sandwich of salad chicken, mayo, tomatoes and ranch
    dressing. It was delicious. Now, I can't count on the tortillas. The
    Tortilla Factory ones are disgusting to me. Not doughy and refined
    enough.
    My plan this time, is to use my treadmill and ab-lounger to boost me over
    the doldrums of starting back, and to increase my motivation. It also may
    absorb some of the excess calories resulting from a fitful start.

    Yeah, I'm a Deja user from way back and I really hate the new format.
    Way too dumbed down. I have a regular usenet account but I liked
    Deja/Google Groups for quick perusing. Now I feel like I'm missing
    loads of stuff.
