Avoid these Foods for Good Health

Avoid these Foods for Good Health


Avoid these foods
Even at this stage after surgery, avoid these foods:

Nuts and seeds
Popcorn
Dried fruits
Sodas and carbonated beverages
Granola
Stringy or fibrous vegetables, such as celery, broccoli, corn or cabbage
Tough meats or meats with gristle
Breads
These foods are discouraged because they typically aren't well tolerated in the weeks after surgery and might cause gastrointestinal symptoms. Over time, you may be able to try some of these foods again, with the guidance of your doctor.

A return to normal
Three to four months after weight-loss surgery, you may be able to start returning to a normal healthy diet, depending on your situation and any foods you may not be able to tolerate. It's possible that foods that initially irritated your stomach after surgery may become more tolerable as your stomach continues to heal.
