Life after surgery

Post Surgery Diet

Regardless of the weight loss procedure, you will require permanent changes in your eating habits that must be adhered to for successful weight loss. Post-surgery dietary guidelines will vary by bariatric surgeon. You may hear of other patients who are given different guidelines following their morbid obesity surgery. It is important to remember that every bariatric surgeon does not perform the exact same weight loss surgery procedure and that the dietary guidelines will be different for each surgeon and each type of procedure.  An example of Gastric Band dietary guidelines can be found in the 'My Surgical Options' section of the site.

What is most important is that you adhere strictly to your surgeon's recommended guidelines.
