Gastric bypass and the Cabbage Soup Diet

by Craig

I had gastric bypass 3 years ago and have put a few lbs back on, would the cabbage soup diet work for me? Also can skim milk be used to make the protein shakes - and how often can I have one. Great site!

Hi Craig,
I regret, but I can't give you here any medical advice. Please ask your gastric surgeon before you go on the cabbage soup diet.

Generally spoken: Skim milk can be used to make the protein shake. You may have 2 protein shakes per day.

All the best,
Gabriela
