I try my best to be vegan, but I am not 100% strict about it if I'm being truthful. Usually when I cheat it's with seafood (pescatarian diet).

I am drinking Soylent shakes right now which are good, but I'm getting bored with them and am looking for some variety. I have lots of ideas for when I get to the stage where I can eat normal, but healthy, foods again, but I'm not sure about good protein sources prior to that, particularly the soft food stage. I would really love to know how other vegans ( and wannabe vegans) are handling post op. Thank you.

I'm not a vegan, but I do like to balance my animal protein with plant protein.

Mixing pea protein powder and brown rice protein powder makes a complete amino acid.

Other idea... hemp protein powder, Chia seed protein powder, peanut butter powder

Good luck!

Hello - I am loving Orgain Protein Powder (I mix the chocolate flavored powder with unsweetened almond milk). Good luck!

I’m not a vegan but I’ve had some pretty strong issues with handling meat products and I’ve had to supplement with my bariatric advantage shakes (Bariatric Advantage) or the new whey protein shots (Amazon) as I’m just not getting in my allotment naturally. Hope this helps.

I'm not vegan but I have run into a lot of vegan products. Vega is one. Soy protein isolate is what my nut suggests but some have pea protein.
