Will There Be Complications If Eat More Food After Gastric Bypass?

My sister had a gastric bypass about 2 years ago. She was down to a size 12 but has come up to a size 16 now. She has begun to eat unhealthy and in an effort to combat that she has begun to take Visalus meal replacement shakes 2 times a day with 2 snacks and one meal a day. Is this okay being that she has had this surgery? Will there be complications?

Hello,

Post gastric bypass surgery needs to take a limited amount of diet with less spicy food. Your diet needs to change drastically after gastric bypass surgery. You should become an expert on healthy eating. Remember, the surgery will get the weight off, but it’s up to you to keep it off. To calculate your expected weight loss after gastric bypass surgery, use our calculator. Still, have a doubt please read food in post gastric bypass surgery. Please consult your doctor he will examine and treat you accordingly.


Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Penchila Prasad Kandikattu
