Girls this is a really good book I'm going to show it to Dr. B.  It is called......Weightloss Sugery for Dummies.  It tell all before wls about.....after......the stages of re entering food....menue plans....and recipies. It is written so anyone can understand. It even has a section on the emotional aspect. I'm glad I found it and would recomend it for anyone thing about it and yes it covers gastric and Banders.  Like all dummie books it is yellow and black and I got mine at Walden Books in the diet section. Check it out! Merry Christmas!    Ohh I have lost my surgery fluid plus 2lbs. 17 in all. Gonna have jello on china tomorrow. Ho Ho Ho Myrtid

I really enjoy that book and pick it up all the time like my own private  mini encylopedia.   You might also enjoy another book called:  Before and After  by Susan Maria Leach She has fantastic recipes for liquid only stages and the rest of the stages.... She started the website www.bariatriceating.com I am soo excited for you!  Congrats Pamela in Fayetteville, NC (waiting on the okay from insurance for LapBand)

First of all, congrats on the weight loss! 17 lbs! Way to go Myrtis!

Second, I agree  ... It's a great addition to the WLS library.

That was the first book I bought and I sent it to my Mom to help answer all of her medical questions.  She found it extremely informative.

I asked for some WLS books for Christmas but hubby never found any.  Thanks for the ideas.   Barbara

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction to look for this book.  I just ordered it from Amazon.com along with "Exodus from Obesity: The Guide to Long-Term Success After Weight Loss Surgery" Kelly :)

Down 65.6 lbs  WITHOUT surgery!!
