Diet to Follow After an Obesity Surgery

May 24, 2018Weightlosssurgeonobesity and weight loss surgery Melbourne

People who undergo an obesity surgery have to take great care of their diet even after the surgery. In fact, more attention has to be paid on diet post-surgery. Obesity surgery is commonly also called bariatric surgery. Though this surgery helps the patient shed huge amounts of weight, it is necessary to take certain steps after the surgery too. The effects of a successful surgery also depend on the diet consumed post-surgery. If one does not follow a proper diet guide then it can also lead to weight gain. Due to the surgery, the body also undergoes changes with regards to the food consumption. There are certain foods which are to be avoided after the surgery while there are particular foods which are good for the recovery. After the surgery, it is essential to follow a strict diet. Here are the details of the diet you need to follow after the surgery.

  • Rely on liquids

Though every patient has a different diet plan depending on the status of the surgery, it is usually advisable to consume only liquids. After the surgery and a few days later too, you should only rely on liquid diet. Strained cream soup, unsweetened juice, etc can be consumed immediately too. It is very important to consume meagre portions of liquid because the digestive system is also undergoing changes. You can also try having low-fat milk.

  • Solid food with liquids

Once you are able to digest liquids you can move to mashed foods. Purees or mashed foods are a blend of solid foods with liquids. It must be noted that foods which are mashed must be very smooth and should not be having any solid chunks. One can make use of liquids such as water, skimmed milk, unsweetened juice for blending. Try using eggs, fruits, beans, etc for the puree.

  • Solid foods

Even while consuming solid foods one has to make sure that they are easily chewable. Solid foods after the surgery need to consumed in small proportions and should be without any crunchiness. One should eat foods which are easily digestible and more or less bland.

  • Foods to avoid

Any food items which are high in calories and fats should be avoided. Such foods are not just difficult for digestion after the surgery but are also weight gaining in nature. Additionally, nuts and whole milk products should also be avoided.

If you are looking out for a healthy and guided bariatric surgery then opt for an obesity surgery in Melbourne.
