When I was three months out, I was still on soft foods (have to be able to cut easily with a fork), and ate according to the directions from my bariatric team:

--3 small meals per day

--no grains, starchy veggies, sweets, tropical fruits, or liquid calories other than Protein shakes

--minimum of 75 grams of Protein per day

--no Snacks other than Protein Shakes

So that basically meant lots of: meat, fish (especially tuna, salmon, sardine, shrimp, scallops, mackerel), eggs (every day!), avocado, Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, refried Beans, lentils, small amounts of nut butters. Those were the mainstays of my diet.

After six months I was allowed regular texture foods and added in green veggies such as asparagus, green Beans, and broccoli, as well as some fruit like apples and strawberries.

I still had the same dietary restrictions in terms of no grains, starchy veggies, sweets, liquid calories etc. until I completed weight loss phase. I stuck with the program and finished up 200 lbs lighter and at goal, so I think the plan my team gave me worked well for me
