Bariatric Nutrition Essentials: Preparing for Surgery
Many people will be advised to follow a meal replacement program prior to surgery to make surgery safer and less complicated. Meal replacement programs should also include ‘low energy foods’ which provide fiber, vitamins and minerals, but very little energy (calories or kilojoules) whilst on the program. These foods are the basis for the recipes used in this book.

This ebook contains recipes for the fluid and smooth pureed diets. The recipes are high in nutrients to aid healing and recovery as well as being tasty and appetizing.

The recipes and the detailed nutritional information for each meal have been fantastic. It has helped me work on what I need to concentrate on in the long term. Thanks so much for saving me from the tyranny of the dreaded shakes! I still remember the fantastic feeling when I had the Beetroot, Walnut and Feta Smoothie after 10 days of Optifast and then clear fluids. I thought I’d died and gone to heaven!”

I made the pumpkin spinach frittata today: fantastic flavour, loved it. The recipe was easy to adapt for using other veges too, so I made another with different veges as well. Look forward to making some of the other recipes. I especially like the gorgeous color pictures, easy to read directions and knowing that these recipes are suitable for me.”
