During
the first week after surgery, diet consists only of liquids
-
During
the second week, diet is based on purees
-
During
the third week, food will be practically normal (there are
hormone mechanisms that regulate the weight loss step by
step)
Weight loss is stabilized
within a year and a half after surgery. The patient losses 90%
of overweight and then weight lost calms down. Stabilization is
achieved because the organism adapts to a minor amount of
calories.
