Take Your Time

The way you eat can be very important after bariatric surgery.  Here are some tips from the team at Transform to help you on your way;

  • We suggest a 6" side plate.
  • Do not pile the plate high.
  •  Portion sizes may vary depending where you are in your weight loss journey so little meals more often maybe necessary to hit a good level of nutrition .
  • Concentrate on the protein foods first. 
  • Eat with a small fork/spoon, aim for 20p size bites of food at one time.
  • Chew 20 times and rest for 20 seconds between mouthfuls.
  • Aim to keep your food textured where possible (once you are back on normal diet).
  • Enjoy your meals -  its all about quality and not quantity anymore

So remember to take it slow, take your time and stop eating when satisfied .
