Cindy Currie Anderson 22 Posted June 30, 2016 I am doing great! I haven't had any struggles. Fortunately, The Davis Clinic only requires 40 grams of Protein per day. Dr. Primomo stresses fruit, veggies, and fish. My menus tonight is sea bass grilled on a cedar plank and fresh sautéed squash. LOL delish Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

goblue9280 481 Posted July 6, 2016 Let me know if you ladies have any specific questions. I don't know how the other docs are, but Garth is very big on recommending a vegan diet. It can be a bit difficult at times since probably 99% of the WLS docs out there push a high Protein (from meat/dairy) diet. there is a good WLS vegetarian group on Facebook that I'd recommend jointing if you are going that route... you can ask anything on there and get good feedback quickly.

Cindy Currie Anderson 22 Posted July 6, 2016 Glad you mentioned that. I've had people flip out when I say I'm only requires 40 grams of Protein per day. They promote veggies first and then fish. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
