 I am Dr. Sumit Talwar. I am the Chairman of Bariatric Surgery of Manipal Health and Prizes Private Limited. Regarding the diet after bariatric surgery let me start from after three months say about after two to three months most people will be on a normal or a near normal diet. Immediately after surgery for the first week or so you will be on liquids for the next two to three weeks that is up to a month you will be on thick soups or thin porridge consistency something which is which you can visualize of as a blended sort of diet then gradually you will progress to semi solids over the next month or so and finally in about two to three months you will be able to take full solid means like you used to take earlier.
