Any vegetarian/vegan sleevers out there?

[MlkPas 5]

I was on a vegan diet for a few months last year and really liked it. I know most of you sleevers are low-carbing it, but I wonder whether anybody has tried vegetarian/vegan eating with the sleeve? Have any of you discussed it with your doctor? I plan to talk to my surgeon about it but would love to hear from you about it, too.

Thanks!

I am definitely a meat eater/lover, but when I had a couple bouts of meat not working for me, I talked to a vegan friend of mine. She introduced me to seitan and tempeh.

I tried the tempeh didn't like it that much. The seitan was much easier for me to tolerate, and gave me good Protein. At first, I was really hesitant to even try it, but it was a good option for me temporarily.

I bought all the stuff, and waited on trying it for a long time. I did eat the seitan for about a week here and there to help with my Protein. I know I could never get my steak/potato husband to convert so I didn't stock up on it, or even attempt to trick him into eating it.

I eat almost exclusively vegan foods right now. They seem to agree with my new tummy the best. I eat the Morningstar Farms products...grillers (hamburgers), veggie burgers, sausage patties and riblets. The Protein is so much higher, fat & carbs are lower and they taste great! They even taste good right out of the microwave so I take them to work. Besides these, I drink Silk milk, eat whey crisps in my foods and eat a lot of Atkins bars.

Thanks a lot, Mr. Nick! I'll have to check those out!
