I am preparing for my new life with the lap band. Does anyone know of any cookbooks created especially for those of us who have had wls? Thank you for you input.

I don't think it is specific to lapband (I actually just got it and haven't really looked at it yet), but there's bound to be some good Protein high/carb low recipes!

Best of luck to you,

Rainer

I really like that one, but here's another one, Eating Well After Weightloss Surgery by Patt Levine and Michele Bontempo-Saray

Before and After by Susan Maria Leach is an autobiography as well as a cookbook. Very informative.

I did a lot of research for surgery.

I don't really eat something special due to being banded, I eat smaller portions, and I know of some foods that I can't handle personally.

But I like www.allrecipes.com , I can search by ingredients, and even put in ingredients I DON'T want. It has ratings & user reviews, pictures, and for servings, you can put in the servings you want and it automatically adjusts the recipe for you.

I use allrecipes.com as well. They have so much good stuff there.

I've never heard of that one. I'll have to check that one out. I am always looking for new reciepes.

thanks,
