What are some of the dietary changes that I have to go through after the obesity surgery?
You will be required to have three meals everyday which will have solid foods. This will help you eat nutritious meals instead of endless snacking. You must • eat slowly • chew your food until it is mushy • allow thirty minutes to one hour for every meal • chew your food for around thirty times before you swallow it • explain to people why you must eat slowly • take small bites • you may want to cut food into pea sizes in order to chew them easier • sit down and focus on eating • turn off the television when you are eating • stop eating when you feel full. You will feel sick if you keep eating because the amount of space in your stomach is too small already. This applies even if you have food left.
