Its Been Almost 4 Years
Its been almost 4 years since I have gotten RNY and wow,what an awesome four years it has been.
I have not been on the site for almost 2 years and wanted to see what has been going on with everyone. In the last 2 1/2 years I have become a vegetarian and at one point almost a vegan. It has its ups and downs, mostly ups.
I have maintained a 200 pound weight loss and hope to hold it there.
Anyways,
Best of luck to everyone.

wow, congrats on maintaining the loss! Any tips or secrets you want to pass along about living in maintenance without regain? How are you getting your protein needs met as a vegetarian sometimes vegan? Any good recipe websites you would suggest?
Well personally I actually take in enough protein for my body to maintain. I started reading books about the protein myths and many others that they want us to buy into and developed my own eating guide. Id recommend that each person on an individual basis develop hers/his own eating guides.
I do take the vitamins and will continue doing so, makes me feel better when I take them. I
I eat many products by Morning Star and Boca that are full of proteins. I also eat Quorn, Gardein and I drink a 72 ounce fruit drink every morning (go VitaMix).
