Eating pasta after gastric bypass would be a personal choice and while my doctor let me know that eating egg noodles was acceptable, I've been told by others they were told whole wheat or regular was okay and some were told not to consume it at all.

Bearing all of that in mind, if and when you eat pasta after surgery, you should watch the portion size and probably measure it, using a measuring cup. As well, you should be eating your higher protein foods first, so if you do have chicken or meatballs etc, you should begin eating that first, with the small amount of pasta afterward.

If you start eating larger portions of normal pasta, especially without the addition of any other protein, you're defeating your own purpose of having had the surgery.

You should not eat unless you are absolutely hungry. If you are hungry, then some of the foods that you should eat are jello, beans, fat-free yogurt, and other foods that are low in fat.
