Wow! Three for three! The one you are recommending is the big encyclopedia one correct? It's expensive on Amazon but it sounds like its worth it!

no, that is what I paid for it. However I bought her cookbook too. She is so awesome. You will enjoy the book. I'm almost 4 wks post op and boy did I have questions, yes I did my homework before surgery but Jean just has it all right there in the book how you really feel and what you will go thru. Wonderful read!!!

The 17.95 price is when you buy it from me. When you buy Bandwagon and Bandwagon Cookery together, they're $15 each.

The version sold on Amazon is the 1st edition, which is out of print.

Yes, it's the giant encyclopedia one. You'll get the best price by clicking on my Bandwagon ad here on LBT (at the bottom of the forum page) or by going to http://jean-onthebandwagon.blogspot.com and clicking on one of the purchase options (credit card or PayPal) on the left hand side of the page. books ordered via PayPal can be autographed to you; just specify that in the space provided when you place your order.

Thanks for your interest!

Jean

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
