Rediscover the pleasure of food after weight-loss surgery.

Weight loss surgery doesn't have to mean giving up your favourite recipes for good. This up-to-date bariatric cookbook puts a surgery-safe twist on foods with 100+ healthy, comforting recipes that are simple enough to make every day, so you can sustain your long-term weight-loss and health goals.

Learn how to implement the right portions, increase protein in your meals, and use the most nutritious ingredients, so your food is as good for you as it is delicious. With nutritional information for every recipe, keeping track of your fluid and calorie intake is easy.

The Fresh Start Bariatric Cookbook is a new nutrition plan for your new body, featuring:

Options for every stage - Each recipe is marked with an icon that tells you which stage of post-operation it's appropriate for - full liquid, puree, soft foods, or a general diet.

Flavourful recipes - Enjoy comfort foods like Chocolate-Peanut Butter Smoothies, Turkey Breakfast Burritos, Baked Salmon with Barbecue Seasoning, Low-Carb Cheeseburger Casserole, and much more.

Foods for every body - These dishes are crafted to meet your needs after gastric sleeve surgery (or vertical sleeve gastrectomy), laparoscopic adjustable gastric band placement, and more.

Enjoy some of your favourite foods while staying on the path to better health and weight loss with this bariatric cookbook.
