I'm kind of surprised that only about 30% are diagnosed(?) with an ED. I personally think everyone who needs WLS has severe problems with eating/food - if one wants to call that an eating disorder or not doesn't matter in the end.

Definitely worth a read. It seems to be quite expensive now. I was lucky to get it for 1,27€ as Kindle edition last year (just looked it up in my past orders) in March when there was a promo at amazon. Now the book is 14,99€, yikes! Davis is also not the only bariatric surgeon who comments on the favored LCHP diet. Weiner also criticizes the obsession with "lean animal protein". His book "a pound of cure" is worth a read, too. (Available on Kindle Unlimited for free at the moment.)

Nobody forces us to eat that little calories. With time the amount of food one can eat usually increases. During the months we are able to eat only very small portions we maybe shouldn't focus on HCLP and view the high protein content of the food as some kind of medical prescription to avoid deficiencies.
