This could be an awesome thread if everyone will help make it MAGICAL. I have been coming across lots of bariatric websites that have countless recipes, and I'm sure some of you have, too. I have even seen a bunch of free bariatric cookbooks! So, what if we all shared our links on one post and that way everyone would have access to all the recipes?! *EDIT* Thanks to @@Rovobay for suggesting that I update this original post by copying and pasting each response so you don't have to scroll through page after page.

@@norcalkitty posted this free cookbook back in October and it is amazing: http://www.chicoweightloss.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/BariatricCookbookJuly2014.pdf

Great idea@bobbyswife I am always looking for something to help me find something healthy to cook.

I was just reading about a phone application that you can download that also has recipies and helps put together a shopping list right on your phone for you as well.

it's called healthy eating in a hurry here is a link:

There is also a cool app called Healthy Out if you put in a zip code it tells you places to eat in the area and gives you samples of "healthy" choices from their menu along with calorie and nutrition information.

My surgeons office recommends www.sparkspeople.com for recipes. You can customize your search to meet your dietary needs. I haven't had a chance to really explore it much yet.

This is the original BARIBUDDIES COOKBOOK. It is a little more condensed, so you won't need a whole pack of copy paper to print it out. Here is how to get to the PDF document so you can download it:

1. Go to www.mybaribuddies.com

2. Scroll down the page to the adobe file list until you find the one titled, "Our Original Cookbook.pdf"

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      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.
