Eight Months A Vegan
I have been totally plant based for 8 months. No animal products at all. Now I do a little exercise, not because I like it, but because I should and I can. Honestly, I feel great!
I had a conversation with a patient today who underwent gastric bypass surgery about 16 months ago. He's lost 125 lbs! All he had to do was go to the hospital for 4 days, be intubated under general anesthesia, have surgery to make his stomach smaller, take off work for a month, go on a liquid diet for 8 weeks, change his portions to avoid throwing up everything if he eats too much, eat only the foods that the dietitian allows and pay the portion of his medical bills that were not covered by his medical insurance.
.....or he could have gone on a Vegan diet, but that would have been too extreme.
