Is anyone familiar with the Keto diet? Is it good or bad for bariatric sleeve surgery?

That's just strictly Protein, right? That sounds like how we eat with the sleeve.

It is a high Fat/Protein, almost like Atkins. I'm concerned about the high fat content.

Oh...yeah the fat is kinda "out". Not a good idea. I googled the Keto diet, and while you will go through ketosis (drink lots of Water to help your liver!!) you don't eat the fat. Once you are out a ways, you can add some fat to your diet though. I will use a little real butter, or I use real mayo in my chicken salad. Stuff like that. I don't do fat free anymore.

Some reports say it could damage your kidneys.

Kidneys! Yes! that's what I meant.

A quick google search will tell you everything you need to know about this type of diet. It's very similar to what most bariatric surgeons recommend after surgery. Atkins is considered a keto diet. It doesn't automatically equal high fat. The basics of it are meat, dairy and vegetables.
