Grub Street The Bariatric Bible

Useful tool
This book is highly informative for anyone considering bariatric surgery, providing a clear overview of what to expect before, during, and after the procedure. I would recommend it to anyone either planning for or recovering from bariatric surgery. The recipes are easy to follow, with plenty of options to choose from while adjusting to the lifestyle changes that come with the surgery. It's user-friendly regardless of what stage you're at in your weight loss journey (WLS). Plus, these recipes can be easily incorporated into family meals, with helpful guidance on portion sizes for both those who have and haven’t had the surgery.

Terrific Cookbook for Bariatric Patients
This is a great source of information and recipes for patients who have had bariatric surgery. It gives a lot of information about the different types of surgeries, what to expect after each surgery, and how to eat after each surgery. There are a number of recipes for each stage of eating after the surgery and, counter to what a lot of people believe, the recipes are very good. I highly recommend this cookbook for anyone who has had bariatric surgery.

Perfect book!
This book is so informative about foods to eat once you have had bariatric surgery. The meals are easy to make and just right for someone who's had the procedure.

Delicious meals but portions a bit large
So far all of the recipes I've made are delicious! As a bariatric patient I also really appreciate the first section of the book detailing basics about weightloss surgery as well as eating and life after. Things most other books I've read haven't included like coping mechanisms, slider foods, and exercise info with specific exercise how-to.As I've said the recipes are delicious and are color coded for post op eating stages. The nutrition information is for a full non WLS patient serving but includes the number of portions and what a portion size should be for a WLS pt. My only complaint is how large some of the servings are. One chicken and veggie recipe feeds 4 and includes 8 chicken thighs. A WLS portion is half (one thigh plus at least a cup of veg!)and some may find it too much like I did. Overall get the book! Just plan for a lot of leftovers if you're cooking for a WLS pt and one other non surgery pt.
