fruitandveggies 456 Posted December 27, 2017 As soon as you can! Even if you can't do full on raw veggies yet, you can do purees and maybe nut butters if you can handle it (early on I couldn't do much fat). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

derrill 3 Posted January 24, 2018 At what point in your weight loss surgery would you venture into raw vegan?~*~Sent via BariatricPal mobile app. Join me on my journey at www.curvylogic.com~*~I’ve been fully raw since the day of my surgery (12/19/18). I have 2 shakes a day with a small amount of fruit, a quarter cup hemp seeds (10g Protein and good fatty acids) and 2 scoops (38g protein) of Sunwarrior raw/vegan/organic Protein Powder (https://goo.gl/uJx891). I also have purée of various veggies and nuts (like raw sprouted cashews, hemp seeds or pine nuts, zucchini, sun-dried tomatoes, and basil, sea salt, etc.).I haven’t figured out what I’m going to eat during the soft foods stage but I’ll figure out some good recipes. The final stage will be easy (I think) as long as you play around with various foods to see what your system can handle. I think I will be keeping up the protein smoothies forever.

derrill 3 Posted January 24, 2018 My surgery was 12/19/17 not 12/19/18 (of course) I also include juiced cucumber, celery, kale, baby spinach, sunflower sprouts, and parsley a couple times per day. You need a good masticating juicer but I think it’s worth the cost. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
