Is there a bariatric cookbook or recipe forum?

I'm still in the "pre" phase awaiting approval for a sleeve (hopefully later this week per my insurance co today!). I've been to my preoperative classes, have my lists of clear liquid, full liquid and soft/puréed foods and am wondering if anyone gets bored with their food choices? How do you change up your foods to avoid boredom? I'm a little worried because in my previous low carb diet attempts I have been successful by eating the exact same thing with very little variation. Seriously. I still cannot bring myself to eat spring mix with chicken breadth, cucumber and tomatoes, and I haven had it for 2 years! Anyone have recipe tips tricks or sites to look at? I realize there's not a whole lot to do with Clear Liquids. I guess I'm mostly concerned about where you go after the Protein Shakes and Greek yogurt??

I don't need much variation in my food flavors. Between eating out once a week and the free Cereal at work, I can do fine with my pork loin and lentils for most meals. Although I have to admit, since doing some taste test videos for Quest bars and OhYeah! Protein bars, I'm getting kinda addicted to eating a bar for dessert.

But Eggface is highly recommended for those that would like to add a lot a variety to their post-op diet.

I found and ordered several books on Half.com for recipes and ideas from people who have had Bariatric surgery. I haven't started cooking from them yet, but I plan to!

Check out some of the YouTube videos by Dr. Matthew Weiner, especially the ones regarding nutrition. He offers practical advice and some recipes. He also has authored a book called A Pound of Cure" which supposedly includes recipes. I ordered it from Amazon yesterday, so can't vouch for the recipes yet.
