Don't do it: Eat right first. I have seen terrible things happen to people after gastric bypass. Simple sugars and processed carbs should be avoided or limited. This includes any flour. The fine grind makes absorption quick, and spikes your blood sugar which increases Insulin and promotes weight gain. Good fats such as olive oil and coconut oil are fine in sensible amounts. Eat a rainbow of organic veges.
