Has anyone had to switch to a vegetarian lifestyle after getting their wls?

I dont eat beef or pork, havent in over 20 years. I can honestly say that since I have been on my weight loss journey I eat very little fish or chicken, I have found that I enjoy the cooked vegetables and I dont miss eating meat. I guess I just worry about getting enough protein so I try to add tuna or chicken breast in, but I could absolutly do without it.

Everything I eat meat wise gives me gas. But only temporarily

Not in the slightest! LOL
I'm actually afraid of this new tick-borne disease that makes you actually allergic to red meat.

Maybe once I can tolerate meat without gas I’ll be more excited lol

Have you tried taking Beano when you eat meat? It's really effective.

I’ve never tried it. But I’m going to look into it

I was a vegetarian prior to WLS and became a meateterian (lol) after but currently transitioning back to plant based with the support of my team
