Has anyone else read this book by Dr Matthew Weiner? It seems like a really good plan once we can eat normal food again. (The book is not just for WLS patients). He may lean a little closer to vegan than I prefer but adding in more plant proteins wouldn’t kill me. Just curious about others takes on his plan.

I think it's a good approach.

Lots of plant food and therefore lots of phytonutrients but I'm definitely biased towards vegan and/or plant based.

I found it very interesting that even some things that dietitians recommend like crystal light he says to stay away from. That would be my hardest thing to kick I think. Since surgery I do drink water most of the time but I splurge like once a day with crystal light.

His YouTube videos are great, he explained a lot of stuff that I found really helpful. Good suggestion on his book, I’ll have to pick it up.

If you're lucky you can still read it on kindle unlimited without additional cost.

I loved his videos as well. Helped me go from anxious to excited about surgery when I felt all alone (before I found this site). Let me know what you think of the book.
