Re: Progression of diet post gastric bypass

[Guest guest]

Our surgeon does 7days clear, 3 weeks full, then soft advancing to solids as tolerated. I think this trasition is slower than most programs.

Good morning

Just trying to get a feel for other program's recommendations out there.. what is your diet protocol for the gastric bypass patients post operatively? How quickly are they advanced to a pureed diet and for how long?

Thanks in advance,
