During your gastric bypass recovery period you will need to eat a restricted diet. There are four phases of recovery that will slowly introduce you back to solid foods. The first phase lasts for a few days after surgery and consists of a purely liquid diet. During the next 2-4 week phase you will eat only pureed or mashed foods. The third phase will allow you to start eating soft solid foods. Finally when you reach the fourth phase of recovery you can start eating solid foods again. Exact recovery times will vary and you should always consult your doctor before beginning the next phase.
