What Is The Gastric Sleeve Diet?

Phase Two Of The Diet

Phase two of the gastric sleeve diet lets patients eat a little bit more. They still cannot eat solid foods, but can incorporate more liquid and heavier items. During this phase, patients will begin feeling hunger again. Thus, they need to ensure they begin getting a good amount of protein, ideally between twenty and forty grams daily. This can be achieved by using protein powder to make drinks or buying premade protein drinks. Patients need to look for drinks high in protein and very low in sugar.

During this phase, patients can add in creamy soups, sugar-free pudding, low-sugar applesauce, scrambled eggs, pureed foods, and even baby food. Also, patients should keep in mind they must continue to drink enough water to stay hydrated on a daily basis, and should incorporate foods one at a time and slowly. This will give their body time to decide if it can tolerate it or not.

It's time for the third phase of the gastric sleeve diet.
