I’m so excited to find this post. I’m scheduled for a revision Dev 12th from lap band to bypass. I’m a little confused on the vegan diet plan. I’ve been vegan for 4 years and intend on staying this way. My Dr. pushes protein, and I’ve read all of Dr Garth Davis books and follow him but I’m still confused on the amount of protein that is necessary. How much protein do you generally eat a day? Also, there’s a lot of pasta recipes here which I love. When did you start adding pasta to your diet, and did it slow down your weight loss? thanks for any help you can offer.

Hello, I'm scheduled for a lap band revision to RNY on Dec. 12th. I've been vegan for 4 years now, so any help, or suggestions will be greatly appreciated. I also read Proteinaholic by Garth Davis. I was trying to find a post surgery vegan diet and have not been able to locate one. Are you getting 50-60 grams of protein a day? What is your main source of protein? Thanks for any help you can give.

Welcome! I'm new here, also. Scheduled for a revision December 12th. I'm so glad I found this forum, it's so encouraging to have others who are going thru the same journey. Now if I could only figure out how to follow people, and reply properly I'll be in good shape.....

Thanks for all the encouragement, I'm so excited, but nervous at the same time. @Travelher you have done amazing!! Congratulations!!

I'm going to Tijuana at Angeles hospital with Dr. Corvalas. Is your Dr. in Tijuana?

I'm following this discussion, also. I haven't told anyone but my husband, and I'm not sure how I'm going to go about keeping this secret.

I'm scheduled for a revision from lap band to gastric bypass on Dec. 12th. Would love to stay connected, but I'm also new on here and need to know how to go about staying connected.

Hi there! I am scheduled for Revision from lap band to gastric bypass on Dec. 12th. I am sooo nervous! I'm self paying so I'm going to Mexico, alone, for the surgery. Can anyone give me some information on how you are doing after your revision, like the recovery period and how much you have lost. I'm really nervous because I was a complete failure with the lap band and I don't want another failed surgery. Any support I can get will be so appreciated.

Hi there!! This is my first post here. I am scheduled for revision from lap band to gastric bypass Dec 12th in Tijuana with Dr Coravala in Angeles hospital. Has anyone else used him? Also, can anyone give me more information on how you are doing after the revision? I’m very concerned because I know it has a higher risk of complications.

I’m scheduled for Dec 12th and I was told just 24 hours
