WLS Cookbook - Low Fat High Protein



Recommended Posts

Eating Well After Weightloss Surgery

There's apparently several others available, but I'm going to buy the USED version of this one and see how I like it. I took a peek inside the table of contents, and it looks like there are a lot of yummy recipes that myself and family would enjoy.

It has over 140 recipes for WLS patients. Y'all know I've become a little obsessed with new recipes, and thought I would share this find with everyone here.

This is one of my favorite WLS cookbooks! It's great for every stage because it has a little key next to each recipe and even gives variations of how you can use the recipes in different stages.

Maybe you could post a couple recipes after you try them out? I don't cook enough to buy a cook book, funny as that might sound. I don't like messing up the kitchen just for me.

I was thinking about purchasing this cookbook. Is it worth it?

I bought this cookbook from Amazon a couple of weeks ago. It looks fantastic. I'm still on mushie/pureed food, so I haven't tried anything yet. The recipes look good and I like how it is formatted for regular eaters and WLS eaters. I'll post a recipe after I try one. Only a week to go to get solids - I can't wait to chew something :-))

I'm a recipe junkie also. I have this book. It's great !!! It breaks it down by WLS patients nutrition and tells how much to have during the different stages that we go through.

My surgeons office also recommended it.

The 'Before and After : Living and Eating Well After Weight Loss Surgery' also has wonderful recipes in it. I made the chicken caccitore last night, and even my pickiest eater ate it. I made rice for him to go with it.

The only thing that bugs me about these WLS cookbooks and they they are too high-carb and sometimes too high fat for me. But I realize that's my particular issue, right or wrong. I have to modify all the recipes. All these RNY cookbooks assume you don't absorb all your calories.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
