recommended book to check out

Please list some books that you have found helpful including recipes and general health after bariatric surgery. THee actually a few out there, and I am not sure which one would be a good one to try. Id like recipes I can feed everyone in the fam, tips and information regarding why certain things work adn certain things dont.

I like the "Clean Eating" books.  Forget the author but she has an updated one out.  Healthy recipees and you can modify them a bit.  Unfortunately, a lot of the recipees I've seen posted just don't sound good to me.  Searching the Internet is the best way.  Find something that sounds possible and maybe change things up a bit.  Also, go to Borders, etc. and look at their bargain selections. 

ok ill look into it, I think I will be able to find recipes Ive used before but I am so new that I want a little bit of facts to go with ie nutritional info so I can  eventually just know what it is that Im eating if that makes sense. Ill look at the book, and never heard of borders will check that too!

here are a few good ones: 

living and eating well after weight loss surgery - susan maria leach

About halfway down the page is A collection of Neighbourhood recipes. I found this helpful. It's by people who have had WLS

Check out  nutritionaldata.com  you can enter your own recipes and get the nutritional info, and then tweek the recipe if need be.  I'm also a HUGE fan of recipezarr.com.  They have a recipe for everything under the sun.  They are also rated by others who have tried the recipe.  Good luck.
