Background/purpose: Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) has been defined as an innovative surgical method for the treatment of obesity and is progressively applied worldwide. Nutritional deficiencies are identified as the possible complications of bariatric surgery. However, data on result of sleeve gastrectomy regarding energy-protein status, nutrient deficiencies and body composition are limited. The purpose of this study is to search nutritional status, body composition and biochemical parameters following LSG.~Methods: Obese subjects (N:55) scheduled for sleeve gastrectomy were included in this study. Preoperative and postoperative (1, 3 and 6th months) protein-energy and other nutrient consumptions, eating habits, food consumption diversity were evaluated with food frequency questionnaire, 3-days food diary record, three-factor eating scale and healthy eating index. Also in the pre- and postoperative period; anthropometric (weight, height, waist, hip, fat free mass) values measured and biochemical blood parameters were collected.

Macro-micronutrient intake analysis, biochemical blood parameters, and anthropometric measures were performed before and 1, 3 and 6 months after LSG.
