Good nutrition is a vital component to staying successful after weight loss surgery.
Post-Weight Loss Surgery Nutrition Tips
Meals and snacks should be half protein. Choose lean options such as fish, chicken, or lean beef. Avoid meats that are fried or breaded.
Include non-starchy vegetables at meals. Non-starchy vegetables include foods like tomatoes, broccoli, carrots, or green beans. The starchy vegetables (potatoes, peas, and corn) should be avoided.
Save starches for special occasions such as holidays or birthdays. Starches include bread, rice, tortillas, and pasta.
Stay hydrated! Try to reach at least 64 ounces of water daily.
