DIET INFORMATION FOR PEOPLE WHO HAVE HAD A STOMAPHYX PROCEDURE
For people who have gained weight or have not reached their goal weight after bypass surgery there is a procedure called Stomaphyx. The procedure is also for patients who have developed dumping syndrome after stretching their connection between the stomach and small bowel, i.e. gastrojejunostomy. There are two aspects to have a good result from the procedure. First the procedure needs to be performed well and second the surgeon needs to have a nutritional plan for the patient after the procedure.
I put emphasis on the post operative diet. I want my patient's to understand that there is an opportunity after the procedure to re-learn how to reduce your calories and maintain a satisfying diet. The first week after the surgery you should stay on a liquid to puree high protein diet. Foods for this week include various protein drinks, low salt soups, yogurt, cottage cheese and pureed meats. The second and third week your food should be solid but soft and moist. Foods like soft and moist fish, mashed potatoes and tomatoes. And by the forth week you should be eating regular food.
The key to successful weight loss is to keep track of how many calories you are eating each week so that as your meal selection changes you continue to maintain the same amount of calories and protein. This gives you an understanding of how your weight loss is related the amount of calories you are eating. I have created a free web site call www.myphonediet.com which can help you with tracking and recording your foods, calories, protein, fat and carbs as well as weight. The site will also help with calculating a calorie goal for daily calories.
The more you understand how your weight changes as your calorie intake varies the more control you will have in keeping your weight off and reaching your goal weight.
