Nereida1975

Feeling a little stronger everyday. Weighed myself for the first time since surgery and down 11 lbs. so that's good. SW 255 CW 244.

I was sleeved one week ago today. I'm still on liquids, protein drinks, broth, water, etc. I've been reading posts and sample menus and it seems most people are referring to meat when they reference "protein". I don't eat any red meat, chicken, or pork. I do occasionally eat fish and can eat much more if needed. My question is whether there are vegetarians with high-protein , low-carb staple food items that they swear by (besides Greek yogurt). Tofu? Beans and lentils? Etc?

I was sleeved on Aug 4 and pulled mine out myself. The surgeon said it was easy to do and I did so today. I took a deep breath and exhaled while I pulled it out. Done and done.

Good luck! I'm also Aug 4th and am excited and anxious, but mostly grateful for the tool to make long term change. HW:262. 5'8".
