A document titled 'Home Care Instructions (From your Surgeon!) for the First Two Weeks Post-Op' outlines guidelines for bariatric surgery recovery. It emphasizes hydration, protein intake (at least 70g/day), lifting restrictions (no more than 20 lbs), and a full liquid diet for two weeks, including examples like protein shakes, Greek yogurt, and cream of soups, with a sample meal plan.
