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!

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

    • buildabetteranna

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
