magickbaby )o( 2 Posted July 20, 2012 Are there any vegetarians out there ? And is it possible to get enough Protein if you don't eat meat ? Never give up ╰☆╮ 1 lovealways reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jenneliza 257 Posted July 20, 2012 Im not a vegetarian but there are definitely ways to get enough protein... You will have to supplement after surgery. There are endless options with Protein Shakes, powders, juices and bars. And of course you will just have to make sure when you do eat, that it is Protein rich.

MommyHand 45 Posted July 21, 2012 Are there any vegetarians out there ? And is it possible to get enough Protein if you don't eat meat ? Never give up ╰☆╮ I met someone this week who showed me the protien powder she uses and it is a completely plant based protien powder. I will try to get the name of it for you if you want.

Ocean0527 23 Posted July 21, 2012 There is a veggie meat called smart ground that is a good source of Protein and tastes great. I'm not vegetarian but I like it and cook with it frequently.

lovealways 287 Posted July 22, 2012 I am also concerned about getting in enough Protein being that I don't really like meat or fish. Veggie burgers are great, but are they tolerable after surgery? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
john 181 Posted July 22, 2012 Yes they're fine . Also Beans are a great source of Protein Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
melonpie05 99 Posted July 22, 2012 Edamame is a pretty good sorce of Protein it's like 18 grams for a cup I love it I haven't had surgery yet but it's def a great snack it's in the frozen section at wal Mart or all natural section of grocery store... My sister has chrones and she went gluten free and she got me addicted to it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

magickbaby )o( 2 Posted July 23, 2012 Its so nice to meet fellow veggies ! I love Edamame, I haven't had it in a long time. I had no idea it was so high in Protein. I'm going to stock up ! Yum ! It will be great for night time snacking. I LOVE smart ground. I use it all the time and lots of black Beans too. I'm definitly going to check out that blog too. Thank you all for the great ideas !
