At what point in your weight loss surgery would you venture into raw vegan?

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).

Never.

May I ask why you want to eat raw vegan instead of a mixed vegan diet?

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.

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.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
