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.

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

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

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
