Eat Your Way To Success And Learn How To Control Hunger - A Weight Loss Surgery Friendly Cookbook

by Wendy Campbell, Sandi Henderson

Weight loss surgery (WLS) has helped thousands of people feel better about themselves and start a journey toward healthier life choices. It’s a wonderful tool, but it isn’t a miracle. WLS can only take care of physical challenges; it can’t magically change the reasons you eat or what you eat. For this, you need to change the way you think about food. Sandi Henderson and Wendy Campbell are here to help you with this very important goal. Authors and recipe creators Henderson and Campbell have both been active in the WLS community for nearly a decade. They can help you through the process because they have been through it themselves and know how a post-WLS body needs help adjusting to the new normal. This post-WLS cookbook provides dozens of nutritious and easy recipes for every meal. The authors have selected every ingredient with your journey in mind. Learn how to make blueberry ricotta power cakes, baked shrimp parm, spicy Thai grilled chicken thighs, and more delicious delicacies. Each recipe includes a calorie count and nutrition information. Reaching your goals doesn’t have to be difficult when you have so many creative recipes at your fingertips!

Are you a weight loss surgery (WLS) patient? Considering surgery? Supporting a WLS surgery patient? Or in the WLS medical, therapeutic or coaching fields and want to provide targeted content to your patients? Give yourself or those in need an ideal gift to winning in the WLS journey!!! "Eat Your Way to Success and Learn How to Control Hunger - A Weight Loss Surgery Friendly Cookbook" by Wendy Campbell, Sandi Henderson is at first glance a great cookbook of easy to plan, make and share recipe ideas that anyone can enjoy! Yet, WLS patients can tell you that most recipes are not “made” for them and can be difficult to alter or adjust to our needs let alone served to our families. With their combined years as WLS patients and bariatric coaching practitioners, they know our pain, have struggled with food choices and understand the search for the right balance we are prescribed by our bariatric and surgical teams. Each recipe is clear, concise and provides serving size along with calorie and protein counts. Commonly heard mantra in the WLS community, “protein first!” is the basis for each recipe and ensures the reader will have an abundance of choices for breakfast, lunch and dinner. I highly recommend: Chile Relleno Casserole, Pastrami and Swiss Cheese—Not on Rye Bread, Artichoke and Egg Spread, Sun-Dried Tomato and Basil Pesto Yellowfin Tuna Salad and Basil Pesto Italian Sausage and Cauliflower Casserole. Easily adapted to suit your individual taste is a big plus with these recipes. I have used these recipes for myself, my family and potluck events with many “Yums” and “You can make this again” being heard each time! 5 stars from this happy WLS patient!
