Description
With Portion Perfection for Bariatrics seeing is understanding, if you’ve had bariatric surgery then this book is for you – designed for those having undergone gastric banding, sleeve gastrectomy or gastric bypass surgery.
Dietitian, Amanda Clark, has determined our most commonly prepared and bought meals and foods, and through careful analysis, determined exactly how much to have. She has added tips regarding specific foods that can be a problem for gastric banding and notes for all types of surgeries.
The book is divided into the meals and snacks with a menu for each. Just choose what you’d like to have from the menu, turn to the page and look at the pictures to see how much to serve to make up a diet that is 900 – 1100 Cals and the right volume for your surgery. It really is that simple. (This is not a recipe book, it shows portion sizes for everyday foods).
The reason this book is so successful is that it provides a very clear guide and it’s easier to remember because it is in pictures.
You might want to consider also buying the Bariatric Plate and the Portion Perfection Bowl to assist you further.
NB: If you have not had bariatric surgery, you would be best to choose the Portion Perfection book with the purple cover.
