Post Surgery Care

 

Liquid Diet

For the first week or two after surgery, your body will only be able to tolerate thin liquids. The goal is to protect the small stomach pouch and also to keep hydrated with lots of water. Other liquids recommended for this phase include clear broth or soup (without any vegetables or meat and not creamy), skim milk, fruit juice and no-sugar added popsicles.
