Little story - I fought long and hard with my mother who couldn't understand and support my decision to become a vegetarian. All animals and critters run my heart. There was no way I was eating "meat" or a mistreated animal that was born, snatched from its mother too early only to be killed for softer "meat". I refused...I don't ask for special treatment when people invite over. I go for the sides

Shannon, is there a Whole Foods or other natural grocery store in your area? go there and look at the vegan options-vegan "cheese," coconut and almond yogurt, vegan sausage, crumbles. Tabitha Brown does a nut meat that helped solidify her fame-we took to it right away. btw, from what you're saying, it looks like you don't eat a lot of particular foods b/c of texture/feel in your mouth and/or throat. I know more than a few people having the same issue.
Wonderful,(sarcastic)your in the cattle state Have protein shakes,fruit smoothies,protein bars,oatmeal,berries and meal enhancements an nutrient supplements. Drink fluids in excess
@A MyMSTeam Member have you considered seeing a nutritionist ? They can make a custom meal plan for you , based on your food preferences. You can also try vegan protein shakes . My husband’s friend is a raw vegan , he eats lots of nuts , and shakes , and supplements.
Hi Shannon🙂I really think I know how you feel. I went from 190 lb maybe a little bit more down to 146 where I'm at right now. maybe there's good things that came out of it like the blood pressure and all that but I just lost so much muscle mass I got so skinny. my friends and family won't say it but I know they really think I look sick. so I think I know how you feel Shannon sometimes it just seems hopeless you're fighting a fight that you might not be able to win but you'll keep trying. ❤️💪🌞
Try nuts lots of nutrients and protein. I hope you aren’t allergic.
