I want to know from surgons, patients, health foods expert/professional nutritionists only….
What can a person who has had gastric bi pass and stomach stapling do if they want to go vegetarain, or mostly ? I know that beans, and soy can be constipating, they are also the highest in proteins and when mixed with, rice, corn, other whole grains become compleat proteins.
Solution?
I do and can drink milk, eggs, like that.
This was Never talked about when I had went to my pre- op, and post op. meetings.
What about vegetables, and fruits?
I had this surgery done,1993, the “rules” have changed a little. I never knew calcium and protiens are poorly absorbed. What can I do to add this,and absorb the nutriants?
I know I need iron, and this dose not absorb through food any more.What can I use over the counter ?
My pouch, It has streched, not fully, but more then it was,I was Told this Would, or could not happen.. Besides more surgery, what can I do to shrink it again ?
Help.
