LCHF after VSG?

Standard

chemical

I need advice. I am a couple of months away from surgery, but I am a planner. Most of what I am seeing for diet plans after VSG is 800 calories or so and low fat. I don’t count calories. Low fat usually means higher carbs. And extra chemicals. Low fat just doesn’t sound like a good thing to me. I have had great success with low carb/high fat. I lost 60 pounds and kept it off for a little while before life took over.

I guess my question is, is this even an option? In my head it is. And I know how to do it. I know what I can and can not eat. I know how to do LCHF with success. I have convinced myself that it should work the same but better since I will not be able to eat as much. But, I am not a dietitian. And obviously I don’t completely have this whole weight loss thing down or I wouldn’t be 100+ pounds overweight. Suggestions?
