Your diet depends on what laparoscopic procedure you have had performed. Day surgery procedures can resume a normal diet almost immediately. More complicated laparoscopic operations like colon resections, complicated hiatal hernia operations or ventral hernia repairs may take days before a normal diet is resumed.
It depends on the laparoscopic surgery but whatever your Surgeon clears.
It depends on what surgery is being done, and whether the stomach or GI tract is involved; however after most laparoscopic surgery you are able to eat immediately after the procedure/once the anesthesia has worn off
It depends what kind of laparoscopic surgery. If it is for Gall bladder, full liquids for 4 hours after surgery then low fat. If bowel is resected, then oral intake can be delayed for 2 to 5 days
Hello,
I am unable to determine what procedure you are having, but as long as it's not your stomach, bland foods are best, not fried and not spicy, but the best is to ask your surgeon and take their advice.

Hi,
The answer to your question really depends on what type of surgery you are planning. For the most part, you will not have to change your diet. Some surgeries require temporary dietary restrictions.

It depends on what you are having the procedure for. Unless your physician has specific restrictions for your surgery, I typically recommend soft bland foods for several days until start to feel better. It may take 4-6 weeks until your appetite returns to normal.
