It is important to follow a gastric bypass diet after a surgery. The diet is designed to be gentle on your new smaller stomach, to ensure proper healing of the staple line, and to help you avoid overeating.
Gastric Bypass diet is generally divided into four phases, which I will describe in short. You should also know that the last phase of the diet will actually turn into your regular diet for the rest of your life. Â
Gastric Bypass Diet Restrictions
