Dear,
thank you for asking
you noticed that you had a
gastric bypass years ago.It's very important for you to remenber that you should be very careful with your post-op nutrition.
Things to note:
1. eat frequently, beverages in small sips
2.limit sugar-high foods such as cakes , sodas, jams, jellies. Drink water, herbal tea ,soups, light sugar free fresh fruits and vegetables juices , but be careful do not drink liquids with meals.
3. Please avoid Gatorade drinks expecially in large amounts, because they contains a lot of sugar and can cause other complications. They are not neccesary if you take a healthy diet. Limits other high sugar foods too.
4.Choose high fiber foods such as :whole wheat pasta,cereals, bread ; and foods with
proteins such as meat, fish , eggs, milk cheese , yogurt.
The most important thing: Please consult a gastroenterology physician, because I suspect for a possible Dumping Syndrome.
Hope this was helpfull to you!
Best regards,
Dr. Ermira Biu
