Updated Post-WLS nutrition pyramid
Hi all,
I'm quite new here, but I thought I'd share an updated graphic representation of the major food groups. This pyramid is useful for people who are 1 month post surgery. I've been told that it may not be applicable for DSers, but maybe there are people out there who have had bypass or sleeve! :) What you guys think?

Had surgery at Nordbariatric, with surgeon A. Maleckas.
It's higher carb than my plan and suggests eating more frequently than my plan.

Dear Gwen,
Thank you for your reply. What are the amounts of protein that is suggested in your case?
Had surgery at Nordbariatric, with surgeon A. Maleckas.
My plan requires 60-80 grams of protein a day.

Hi GooseGirl!
I also think this pyramid is more of a guide that just reflects the principle itself.
By the way, which surgery did you have?
