Immediately following gastric bypass surgery, the patient will progress from a clear liquid diet, full liquids, pureed solids, soft solids and finally full solids. Progress is determined by the patients ability to tolerate each level. Once they are eating a full solids diet, gastric bypass patients should try to eat foods that have high protein as well as high nutrient value. Problems may arise from vitamin deficiencies, dehydration, constipation and other complications if the diet is not followed closely. Foods that are high in fat and sugar can "dumping" syndrome and may even lead to eventual weight gain. The gastric bypass patient need to follow his/her doctor's diet instructions carefully in order to avoid pain, nausea and other gastrointestinal difficulties.
