Cool book for WLS patients

It's geared towards RNY, but I found a lot of the information very useful, and some of the recipes sounds pretty tasty.

It's 160 pages, and I just skimmed through a lot of it. I think it's a good thing to just have for other ideas, and excellent info on vitamins/supplements/deficiencies.

I'm feeling geeky and thought I'd share.

My favorite piece of information included is this statement ! ! !

American Society of Bariatric and Metabolic Surgeons (ASMBS)

Nutritional Guidelines for the Surgical Weight Loss Patient

http://www.asmbs.org/Newsite07/resources/bgs_final.pdf

Excerpt from Page 23: One popular myth is that only 30 g/hr of Protein can be absorbed.

Although this is commonly found in both lay and some professional literature, there is no

scientific basis for this claim.
