Before and after bariatric surgery

After bariatric surgery the stomach is smaller, so eating returns to normal in stages over a few weeks. The length of each stage depends on the surgical team's protocol; we turn that protocol into daily meals.

Who is it for?

  • People preparing for bariatric surgery
  • Those in the liquid, purée and soft stages after surgery
  • People years after surgery who want support again

How does the process run?

Preparation
Pre-operative nutrition and habit preparation for the period your team recommends.
Transition
Clear liquids → full liquids → purée → soft → normal; a visit at each step.
Long term
Protein target, vitamin and mineral supplements, yearly lab follow-up.
