Abstract: For any flag simplicial complex $Theta$ obtained by stellar subdividing the boundary of the cross polytope in edges, we define a flag simplicial complex $Gamma(Theta)$ (dependent on the sequence of subdivisions) whose $f$-vector is the $gamma$-vector of $Theta$. This proves that the $gamma$-vector of any such simplicial complex satisfies the Frankl-F"{u}redi-Kalai inequalities, partially solving a conjecture by Nevo and Petersen cite{np}. We show that when $Theta$ is the dual simplicial complex to a nestohedron, and the sequence of subdivisions corresponds to a flag ordering as defined in cite{ai}, that $Gamma(Theta)$ is equal to the flag simplical complex defined there.
