What to Eat after Surgery?
After bariatric weight loss surgery, patients are required to alter their diets and lifestyle. This includes monitoring the quality and quantity of food they eat. Nutritionist Margaret Furtado has created a cookbook specifically for these patients so that "they feel more like people and less like patients."
Furtado told Weight Loss Surgery Channel, "I tell people all the time, they operate on your gastrointestinal tract, not your brain. You really want to make sure you have real support, and realistic expectations."
The cookbook includes recipes that are healthy and will help maintain an ideal weight. The book takes into consideration portion sizes, calorie counts, and offers helpful tips for everyday cooking. Patients after bariatric surgery may face difficulty adjusting their lifestyle to their new body. Furtado hopes that her hints and recipes will make life after surgery much more pleasant for patients and allow them to live a normal life.
