I hope this link works, this is a 77 page document I found from University Missouri Health on Gastrectomy Guidelines Before and After. This discusses stages of the process, including food, Vitamins, exercise and even pregnancy While there are references to other weight loss procedures I found it Very accurate to my past almost 8 months and perhaps helpful for folks who may want to read and have specific questions or if you do not have food guidelines. Remember most doctors want us to follow their procedures but, if for some reason you do not have a guideline or want confirmation, this may be helpful.
Not sure if we can pin this as I did not find a disclaimer about printing.
Take care
