Greta book. Easy to follow and to the point. I do wish It had more recipes. Highly recommend. I haven’t had bariatric surgery and don’t qualify but I was looking for healthier food options.

I read this book as someone who is always on the lookout for low calorie recipes, rather than someone who has had bariatric surgery, and from this perspective, my findings were as follows:

The book starts with information and advice for those who have had surgery, then moves on to recipes, first come the smoothies / shakes (wonderful to noted that chocolate is still on the menu!). We move on to breakfast with choices such as oatmeal prepared the night before in a slow cooker, also pancakes, quiche and muesli (amongst many others). The next chapter covers sides and it is wonderful to see lots of appetising vegetable dishes (including veg inspired pasta substitutes!). Dinner follows in the next chapter with international dishes included. Gratifyingly, desserts are also featured, included delicious- sounding fudge brownies

This book doesn't include illustration, but nutritional information is helpfully featured..

Overall, this is a book that is some to inspire many whilst consistently promoting good choices.

My thanks to NetGalley, author and publisher for the opportunity to review this book in exchange for an advance copy.
