Found A Fantastic Guide Book!



Recommended Posts

Not sure if anyone else posted about this. In reading another post, I saw Weight Loss Surgery For Dummies. I'm sure I'm going for RNY bypass one but wanted to know more about others. So went to order it and saw Weight Loss Surgery Cookbook For Dummies.

I am sooo happy I found it. It's already doggeared and highlighted and has colored tags all over it and haven't gotten to real food recipes yet.

Really, this has the best info! It starts with your liquid pre surg diet. What to bring to hospital and how to set up your kitchen! Then just hits every other point from there.

I can't recommend this enough. Everyone should look at this. Even think Drs should recommend it for reading before surg.

I realize all Drs have their own guidelines and this may have stuff you don't have to do/use but still...what a help.

Wasn't sure where I should post...here, post surg or cookbook? Reaches all of these really.

I saw that someone posted about weight loss surgery for dummies and downloaded it to my iPad. I will most likely get the cookbook too now that you speak of it!

I have lots of books on WLS as I've been trying to make this happen for years! I have to say this book is clear, to the point, and totally informative! I second the recommendation!

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
