im not a vegetarian but i know that meat is the last thing that my doctor wants me to eat, not till 6 weeks after. so you can have soft stuff like cream of weat, oatmeal, mashed potatoes, etc. the only thing that i eat so far that is dairy has been a little cottage cheese and my doctor doesnt even want me to eat to much dairy. There are plenty of things. sorry if that doesnt cover everything, i dont know the specifics of being a vegetarian.

I'm not a vegetarian, but I've been eating like one so far post op. I have vegetarian refried beans, smashed soy meatballs, soy milk, soy products are common after bypass, because a lot of people are lactose intolerant right after surgery. Those are only a couple of examples, but you can do it.
