Recipe book for WLS ??



Recommended Posts

I am 3 weeks post op and on the pureed stage - fun fun but better than liquids so can't complain :)

Looking to see if anyone has purchased a good WLS recipe book that they would recommend? I saw a few on Amazon but not sure which one to purchase. Some concerns are the recipes will not have enough Protein.....

Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks all :)

You know, I just typed out a long long long long recipe list with everything from high Protein Soups to mock lasagna to mushy safe chinese food to high proten, low carb mushy-safe pizza.

Here's the shorter version of my post:

Most of the WLS recipe books out there are just compilations of recipes people post on messageboards. Yes, people them copy these recipes & publish them.

I can recreate the recipes later if you're interested.

Hi -

I'm interested in that list. Tomorrow I start the full liquid phase for the next 3 weeks.

My nutritionist highly recommends the Complete Idiot's Guide to Eating Well After Weightloss Surgery. I just ordered it, has anyone read that one yet?

I bought one...shoot I can't even remember which one it was, but the two recipes I tried were both awful. I'd stick to Eggface...her stuff is awesome, the whole family loves them and they are FREE! Can't beat that!

      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.
