📝 Description: Before & After, Second Revised Edition: Living and Eating Well After Weight-Loss Surgery (Revised)

An intimate guide to living and eating well after weight loss surgery, Before & After by Susan Maria Leach was nominated for three IACP awards--Best First Cookbook, Best Health & Diet Book, and Cookbook of the Year--when it was first published in 2005. Now, in its 2nd revised edition, Leach's essential guide--part memoir, part cookbook, part inspirational journey--has been updated with a new Q&A section, revised nutritional discussions, updated menus and meal plans, and more. Anyone who has undergone or is contemplating weight loss surgery can benefit from Leach's recipes, tips, and important information--and from the inspiring true story of how she has coped and thrived after gastric bypass surgery reduced her body weight by half.

Before and After, Second Revised Edition by Susan Maria Leach offers an intimate guide to living and eating well after weight-loss surgery, drawing on the author's personal triumph after gastric bypass reduced her body weight by half. Nominated for three IACP awards when first published, the revised edition updates its essential advice with contemporary nutritional discussions and practical menus. Because of this focus on post-surgical adaptation and medical weight-loss recovery, the book does not suit traditional gourmands seeking rich, unrestricted cooking, nor casual readers uninterested in bariatric health management.
