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.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
