Are there any vegetarians out there ? And is it possible to get enough Protein if you don't eat meat ?

Im not a vegetarian but there are definitely ways to get enough protein... You will have to supplement after surgery. There are endless options with protein shakes, powders, juices and bars. And of course you will just have to make sure when you do eat, that it is protein rich.

Thanks for responding ! Yes I need to just research what things veggie have the most Protein. Nice to meet you !

I met someone this week who showed me the protien powder she uses and it is a completely plant based protien powder. I will try to get the name of it for you if you want.

There is a veggie meat called smart ground that is a good source of Protein and tastes great. I'm not vegetarian but I like it and cook with it frequently. Nobody knows unless I tell them

You can buy veggy burgers.

I am also concerned about getting in enough protein being that I don't really like meat or fish. Veggie burgers are great, but are they tolerable after surgery?

Yes they're fine . Also beans are a great source of protein

Edamame is a pretty good sorce of protein it's like 18 grams for a cup I love it I haven't had surgery yet but it's def a great snack it's in the frozen section at wal Mart or all natural section of grocery store... My sister has chrones and she went gluten free and she got me addicted to it

Please chk out vegetarian website - I have a hard time eating meat too and getting Protein.

Its so nice to meet fellow veggies ! I love Edamame, I haven't had it in a long time. I had no idea it was so high in Protein. I'm going to stock up ! Yum ! It will be great for night time snacking. I LOVE smart ground. I use it all the time and lots of black Beans too. I'm definitly going to check out that blog too. Thank you all for the great ideas !
