I think every Bariatric patient should be given a copy of this book before surgery. It answers so many questions I had, and it's really helpful to see some recipes and things to know when having lost all the weight. The info on why people put weight back on is so helpful. A beautifully presented book, and one I would highly recommend.

Even though I had all the information from my medical team, I really wanted something to read that broke down the stages and gave me so food suggestions. This book does all of that - as well as explain each WLS procedure, which has been super helpful for family and friends.

The complete nutrition guide for WLS you need for pre, post op and beyond

Wow! Wow! Wow! What a book!

If you are looking for a book that has everything you need to know for WLS and nutrition, then this is the book for you. It is like a guiding hand that will support you through pre op preparation, post op nutrition stages (fluid to soft diet) and beyond into your new healthy life. I love that it also comes with sample menu's to take the guesswork out if time restraints are a factor some days. I also really appreciate that every recipe comes with nutritional information.

Photos are also wonderful. Thank you so much for a fantastic companion in my new life. Worth every cent and more.

Covers everything you need to know about the various weight loss surgeries on offer, the diet required post op, troubleshooting etc. explains all about vitamins, and vitamin supplements and why they are needed. The book is full of really yummy sounding recipes for the liquid, purée, soft, and regular food stages. I am pre op and have found this book really amazing. I would highly recommend this book to others.
