Here's an idea I've been throwing around in my head.

What if we all contributed our favorite recipes, and then I typed them up into a cookbook. Then I could have them printed and bound and we'd each have one (you'd just pay the cost of printing/binding/shipping, I'm not out to make money, just compile your recipes :eek:).

I've done this with a couple of my other internet groups, and I ADORE those books! It's great to have a book with recipes that you know people have tried and enjoyed, not just crap people made up to fill a book, kwim?

They wouldn't be anything fancy by any stretch of the imagination, just your typical fundraiser cookbooks, paper with a plastic binding.

If there's enough interest, I'll start another thread with the details. If not, I'll go back to my cave. :frown:

I would like a copy of the cookbook also. What do I need to do?

Well, I will tell ya what.

I didn't get many recipes for this, but I'll try to forge ahead. I'll pull some stuff off the forums and from my abundance of recipes (I collect cookbooks). I'll come up with something and let ya know :cursing:

I can send a couple really good ones if you need them. Jean

Mail all your recipes to lbtrecipes@gmail.com

:wink2:

I don't have any recipes, but i sure would like a book if you get one together :-)

The cookbook idea is great . I would like one too . I haven't banded yet but I would like to have one for after i am.

Please keep me posted. I have not been banded yet and I would love some help on some great recipes. - Thanks

A cookbook would be great! Put me on the list to buy one too....

Michele

I would be interested.

I LOVE this idea! I will be banded on June 11th and this would be SUPER helpful. I will definitely order one and don't have any problems paying whatever they end up costing. Please let me know when we need to pay.

Thanks, and GREAT work!

I'd like one for a friend! Thanks

I don't have any recipes but would love to have some new things to try.

There is a website FatBlog.Org - Weight Loss Surgery Forum - Index that has some good recipes posted as a sticky.

I keep getting responses about a cookbook. The easiest way for us to share our recipes is not to read through an entire blog to find one interesting, but to use an online database. I have created one you can just enter your recipes and everyone can access them at Zoho Creator - Online Database Application.

It would be great if we could get a link on this blog to the online database and everyone could contribute at no cost.

Well, I will tell ya what.

Have you combed through the hundreds of recipes already posted in the recipe section in this forum (and nicely categorised into liquids, mushies, etc)? If not, it's definitely worth a look and you can always PM the people who made the post to ask their permission to reproduce the recipe.

Here's the link, in case you've had difficulty finding it: http://www.lapbandtalk.com/f82/

Hi just checking how this is coming along? I have some recipes but don't want to burden you if this project didn't take flight.

Let me know!
