Eat a balanced diet. A healthy diet will help you heal after surgery, and keep you at a healthy weight for
the rest of your life. Your diet should include plenty of fruits and vegetables, little salt, lots of fibre, as little
fat and oil as possible, protein from meats and dairy products, and little to no alcohol, as recommended by
your doctor. Maintaining your weight with smart food choices and portions will help you reduce your risk of
developing heart disease, diabetes and high blood pressure
