What can I consume during the different stages?'Will I regain weight after bariatric surgery? If so, what should I do?'If I am vegan, how can I get enough protein after surgery?'If I feel hungry after eating, should I eat again after bariatric surgery?
ConsistentIncomplete information: Patient was not referred to a bariatric dietitian, nor was an evaluation for physiological causes of weight regain emphasized.Contradictory: The model classified green leafy vegetables, such as spinach, broccoli, and Swiss chard, as rich protein sources; however, they are low in protein content.
  • Inconsistent: According to the model, patients are advised to eat despite feeling hungry after bariatric surgery, as the post-surgery diet includes smaller, more frequent meals. Thus, feeling hungry is normal, and having a light meal may be appropriate. The model also emphasized key considerations before eating. However, during the first six months, ghrelin levels, which promote fullness, remain high and gradually decrease, making hunger more noticeable.

  • Patients should eat every four hours during the first three months, regardless of hunger cues, as early hunger can lead to issues like heart palpitations and panic attacks

How long should I take multivitamins after the surgery?'What should my daily energy intake (kcal) be after bariatric surgery?How many meals should I consume daily after the surgery?'
ConsistentIncomplete information: The calorie amount was suitable for the first year but lacked guidance on increasing intake after one year.Contradictory: In this case, the number of meals suggested for the first year was unclear, and the phrase 'large, frequent portions' was found to be confusing.
