My NUT recommended Eating Well After Weight Loss Surgery. She said that their dieticians had looked at it and felt it was very suitable and in line with their recommendations. Each recipe tells you what to do depending on your type of surgery and what stage you're at.

I don't cook much but love cookbooks. I bought Eating Well After Weight Loss Surgery, too and it looks like it has some delicious recipes. I just haven't made any.

You can also find lots of good recipes online: there are several recipe blogs (World According to Eggface and Bariatric Foodie come to mind), and there are tons of recipes in Pinterest (search bariatric, vsg, sleeve recipes, low carb high Protein, etc.)

I haven't purchased any cookbooks, but I do have a Pinterest and if you search for bariatric recipes you'll get a ton of great options! I've also saved a lot of low carb recipes for when I'm finally able to eat all foods again.

Oh! And skinnytaste.com has great recipes! She takes a lot of great meals and makes them healthier, her portions are usually smaller too!
