It is important to change overall eating habits after completing gastric bypass surgery. Gastric bypass surgery is not a quick fix and it requires a lifestyle change. Food should be chewed thoroughly and consumed very slowly. Certain foods may become difficult to digest such as steak and other meats. Be sure to avoid drinking liquids while eating. After gastric bypass surgery, liquids can disrupt the ability to consume an adequate amount of food. Liquids consumed with a meal may also cause an upset stomach and vomiting. Alcohol should be avoided, even in small quantities.
