  1. I think I'll go to the bookstore and find the book PROTEINAHOLIC by Dr Garth Davis.  I just read some accounts of his patients being on a plant based diet and being very successful.  I even read that his points are very valid about the amount of protein we have all been lead to believe we need.  I'm super excited, because I've been trying to do plant based for a while now and I've got the support of my husband who wants to go plant based as well.  Now, I have to get very creative for my kiddos.  The easy part with them is that they tend to not eat meat anyway.  I've got to sneak veggies and legumes in...LOL  LIke black bean brownies.  They'll for sure eat those!  I HOPE!!!!

      I'm gonna look this up too. I'm hoping to do a plant-based diet once I'm 6months out. I ate that way before and felt great, just had a little trouble getting my proteins in. Thanks for mentioning it!

      You're so welcome @MSinger! I noted on another thread I felt awesome doing plant based pre-op. I wasn't on for long since my surgery was in the works, but I've been slowly incorporating more plants these days and will be opting this for my lifestyle diet.

      Btw...didn't get to the bookstore!!! Waaa! Maybe tomorrow after work. 😉

      Oh I hear that plant-base diets are the best. I know veganism has some major benefits. Good luck and congrats on the support.
