Hey everyone! Hope you are all doing well. I am having the surgery in a little over a month and have been researching a lot. But, I have toa sk a question to see if anyone has tried this... are there any AGB patients out there that have taken on eating Raw? Working in an alternative wellness center I have really started learning more and more about the Raw food diets out there. We have this amazing clients that uses us as her guinea pigs to try out new recipes. The food is delicious. All it really is, is vegetables pureed and it is heavenly. I couldn't help but think that when I have the surgery that this can be an added addition to my new food options. The food is filled with amazing enzymes since the veges aren't being cooked. Please let me know if any of you have incorporated this into your everyday lives.

For those that aren't familiar with the Raw Food Life there is a great video on the importance of eating live foods. If you would like, please check out: Food Matters | Home | Food Matters The Film Official Web Site or www.rawvolution.com.:thumbdown:

I am curious about this also. I love raw veggies but did not think about putting them in a blender.

I want to see what the others have to say about this.

Did you get a chance to go over to either of the websites that I posted above? There is a whole world of raw that I never could have imagined. When I read about Hollywood celebrities going raw, I though - ewww gross! They eat raw meat? LOL! I couldn't have been more wrong. Eating living food is so helpful for us. And I think that it would add so much more to Bariatric Eating. There is actually no meat at all in the diet. They take average foods and make them even better. They have this mock tuna salad that I have had! To die for! Plus, it is so pureed that it should be easier for all of us to process.:thumbdown:
