I was up very late watching YouTube (Dr. V- Vong ?) He has some interesting ideas about not being so protein driven after surgery.

I have already consulted my team and have been given the green light so I'm slowly transitioning to plant based again ( I'm flexible at the moment leaning heavily on plant matter) but also I'm not sold on being protein crazed either, especially the further out I go.

I will have to watch carbs forever because I'm sensitive to them so there is a delicate balance for me.

Is there anyone following the Dr. V approach?

I don’t do shakes. Every morning I have a protein juice drink. I got it from Amazon and it’s called New York bariatric. I got the sample pack which has 7 flavors. I add to it Dr Axe collagen protein. I am getting 25 g of protein I that drink. It’s just Different than a creamy shake. I prefer juice in the morning so this works well for me and it’s fewer calories than a shake.

Of course nearly everything I tried to upload was problematic,

After researching I think I will play around with alternating normal high to med high Protein intake when I convert to fully plant based. Just to stave if the desire to return to a heavy carb diet. I'm too carb sensitive.
