Got the weightloss surgery for dummies book. Very helpful. All sorts of recipes and food lists for each stage. Lots of good information overall. Bought mine at Barnes & Nobles.

My list includes poached eggs, creamy Peanut Butter, refried Beans, mashed banana, mashed avocado, cream of wheat or cream of rice, thin oatmeal, malt o meal, sf puddings, lite yogurt, and stage 1 baby food/meat, pureed meat, applesauce, mashed potatoes.

Hi - it's been a month, do you still find the books useful? I've had them pop up in my Amazon "recommended for you" list but wasn't sure if they were tailored enough for the sleeve or more generic?

I "know" a lot of information about WL but even after years of first 20-20 and then the band I don't think I've truly internalized it all. Given I got back up to 217 lbs, propably not, right? ;-)

I found nothing at Barnes and Noble regarding bariatric or weightloss surgery or cookbooks nothing! Is society really still that shhh about it! Glad my drs office sells bari books for only their cost to him! And amazon has bunches too! I got really mad seeing ALL the dieting books, ALL the cookbooks for every possible diet ever created and NOTHING on bari!
