I've lost lots of weight in the past year (50 lbs at my high point). One of my secrets are low carb, high protein and fiber tortillas - large size -made by La Tortilla Factory. Add half a slice of low fat cheese, a couple egg whites and a splash of Sriracha and you've got something that will stay with you until lunch - only 130 calories! These tortillas rock and they actually taste good. I'll bet I've had 500 of them. Trust me on this one...

    You're a winner in my book because you use SRIRACHA! Thanks for sharing your secret :)

    I should look for these! I have egg taco with Sriracha twice a week on regular tortillas but that could be even better....thanks for the tip!

    Tortillas used to kill me. I love taco night and the fillings weren't bad but I was eating tortillas between 180-200 calories a piece.

    I use Guzman's and they are 60 calories.Awesome because I can have three for less calories than I would have had in 2 tacos before.

    Where do you buy the tortillas?

    I have not been able to find the low carb tortillas at Target, but They are sold in two different chain grocery stores here.

    I had the same exact thing for breakfast this a.m. and you're right...delicious and filling (tho I also ate a yogurt to supplement) :)

    I found a variety of the low carb tortillas at 60 calories each (medium size) at Trader Joe's--called Sonoma (by the Tortilla Factory, i think).
    And then just got the large size tortillas at 80 cals/each at Von's yesterday.

    12 g is low...poor girl must have continence issues. 25-30 g a day is the recommended amount of fiber for a woman. Lol.

    I use this brand for all my wraps, burritos, and even used it as a pizza crust once!
