    My parents use a product called "Flat Out" and make wraps, etc. My dad is diabetic so he has to watch his carbs.

    i like the flat out wraps.

    Who says your sandwich has to have 2 pieces of bread... ???

    Once I threw this belief out the window - I now make my sandwiches on 1 piece of good quality bread that I love!

    Gotta eat what you love!

    The thought of eating fake low cal/low carb bread makes me gag.
    The only way I will give up my Butternut White Bread is if they go out of business and stop making it.
    Oh wait a minute......

    I have been using a slice of cheese in place of bread. It was kinda weird to get used to at first. But now i really like it. Just make your cheese is kinda on the thick size.

    don't replace your bread. carbs aren't bad. they are essential to a healthy and balanced diet. if you are trying to lower your carbs to balance with everything else, i suggest using one slice of bread in stead of two.

    Replace each slice of bread with a chicken breast :laugh:

    What do you usually eat on a sandwich? Could you just increase the veggie content, and turn it into a salad?

    I use either wheat or spinach tortilla. Any bread with sprouts is also good. I prefer the wraps. Works great for me. good luck. Oh there are a few sandwiches wrapped with large lettuce leaves, the Unwich.

    Sometimes I use big lettuce leaves if I'm having a burger or something. Works great and tastes fantastic and saves over 100 calories. :)

    Large lettuce leaf works, or my favorite, use a large portabella mushroom cap. Pull out the stem, you can chop or cut into the "meat" of the mushroom, pile or layer your stuff in there & maybe toast for a few in an oven, and voile! Healthy, delicious, low cal, low carb & great fiber!!

    GF breads can be a lower cal option but not necessarily carb - there is Ener'G Light Brown Bread, 50 cals a slice, but not sure if the sodium & other stuff is worth it (I am GF due to allergy)
