I'm 4 weeks out and have tried a little bit of vegetarian chicken since I can't have chicken yet. Has any body else tried veggie food? And is this safe?

I had tofu and it was great.

I was sleeved on 6/4. I get most of my protein from dairy and vegetarian sources. If by veggie foods you mean Morningstar, Boca, etc., I tried to eat a Morningstar griller patty last week and ended up in pain. They are kind of dry, and didn't feel too comfy in my sleeve. The week before I was able to eat a chickpea patty, and it didn't cause any trouble (but only 1/4 of it sure did fill me up). Products will vary.

Thank you very much. I was sleeved 6/11 and can't do the protein shakes. I've tried several types so I figured I'd try this

How about hummus? I was thinking this would be a good protein source on its own.

I could eat refried Beans pretty early on...you can thin it a bit with veggie broth.
