Post-op diets/cookbooks: VSG vs. RNY?

[GingersnapMI 29]

So I'm browsing the bariatric cookbooks and find that many specify in their title whether the recipes are for Sleeve or Bypass patients. Just what is the difference in diet after Sleeve vs. Bypass? Does it actually matter which type of cookbook I buy?

Thanks!

our clinic had the VSG and RNY patients on the exact same food plan - so no, it shouldn't matter which cookbook you get.

Thanks! The bit of quick googling I did also didn't turn up any differences but I thought it best to ask. I guess the writers/publishers are just trying to capitalize on the prevalence of certain surgeries.
