Has tons of recipes (great ones especial when your early out and don't know what to cook)
Did your Dr. give you a list of stuff you could eat for the first few weeks. They usually have a "plan" they want you to follow for the first few weeks.

Thank you. No he has not yet. I kinda know what to expect to eat because my cousin had the same surgery and same surgeon but I kinda like to have it in front of me and know fully what to expect. He I believe will give it to me when I set up my next visit to get my tenative surgery date once I complete all my testing(which hopefully will be within the next 4 weeks)
My mother in law got me these two cookbooks on Amazon and they gave me great ideas and prevented diet burnout. I prefer the first though both break down the nutritional values for every recipe and the first even talks about what stage you can try each recipe (e.g. liquid diet, first 3 months, first 6 months, etc).

I can't recommend highly enough the book that was given to me through my surgeon's program... It's called Living a Lighter Lifestyle: A guide to successful weight loss and maintenance following weight loss surgery by Gaye Andrews. This book changed my life in ways I can't describe!! :D
You can get the 4th edition at Amazon... I have the 5th edition but I can't imagine it is all that different! :D
Huggles!!
