    I’m definitely loving my protein fluff! I had enough calories to add a broken up ice cream cone and my super fancy sprinkles

    That. Looks. Awesome.

    Your photo of your fluff with the waffle topping definitely played a part in inspiring this delicious creation!

    lol, I second that!
    What kind of wrap? I cannot find wraps under 200 cal., and what is the powdery looking stuff on your salad? Is it garlic powder?
    looks delicious!

    google says the only place within 50 miles of me that has that Tumaros business is the AFB commissary. Going in search of a pilot to take me shopping.

    The one thing I hate is how expensive they are! (3.69 for 4 wraps) I've tried ordering in bulk online, but they are even more expensive everywhere I've found. Online and most stores carry the smaller wraps which are 50-60 calories, but I prefer the nice giant ones because they are bigger and have better flavors, lol.

    I like these too even though they aren't as big. I also like la tortilla factory, but again they aren't as big or as delicious. Still good though. 90cal flatouts are also great like @crazyravr mentioned. I used to use those for awhile but switched since these are so much bigger lol.

    It is times like these that make me sad I live in Victoria. We only have one store that sells one kind of Flatout wrap... and boy are they expensive ($4 for 6). We generally don't get cool food stuffs here and when we do they cost more.

    HOW?!

    Tumaros 10in pumpernickel wraps 80 cal they are my FAVORITE ! Highly recommend. They come in sourdough, rye, and everything bagel flavor. All are fantastic!

    Wrap (80+ 45 turkey + 10 lettuce + 5 spicy mustard + 5 tomato + 5 onion plus I add Italian seasoning)

    Salad (romaine lettuce 15, one tbsp balsamic 10, chipotle tobacco sauce, a sprinkle of trivia, no salt salt, lots of onion powder. This was before I mixed it up but there is tomato onion and banana peppers under there too 5)

    Google says I can find these wraps 6 miles from my house :). I am really excited to try these! Thanks.

    Online. Always online.

    Any website you can recommend? As an example Amazon doesn't ship them to Canada (which is fine as I try to not shop with them) and lowcarbcanada has them for 3.99 so I'm not really saving any money but they have a bigger variaty.

    I bulk my oatmeal with wheat bran every morning!!! It adds fibre and makes it way bigger. Also can add egg whites and protein powder and stick it in the microwave to watch it grow. Others have added zucchini for bulk too!!

    I cannot find the pumpernickel wraps online and they are not available anywhere near me. I live in hickville. If anyone finds the pumpernickel online, please let me know. The Tumaros website doesn't even sell them. Maine has such poor availability on good food!

    I also do the microwave trick. You microwave in huge bowl with lots of extra water for like 5 min then cool then 3 min and it puffs up like 10x the size. I’ll have to take a pic next time. 100 cal packs end up huge.

    I will but I’ve looked for years because wanted to buy in bulk and freeze (they freeze great) but could only find at foodservicedirect and open sky where the shipping made it more expensive than to buy in store. I really wish the company would sell the 10inch ones on more websites and amazon. It seems like the smaller ones are more popular which makes no sense to me.

    What makes it increase in size so much? Is it the wheat bran, the egg whites, the protein powder or what? Also, how much do you add?
