Bariatric Cooking and Diet - Healthy Cooking Tips and more!
"After undergoing Weight Loss Surgery in January 2002, I quickly realized that there was no where to turn for cooking advice and suggestions. Although a chef and classically trained, I was even having trouble with my "new" eating requirements. Taking what my dietician told me to do on paper and translating it in the kitchen was a nightmare. I decided there had to be an easier way. I began researching foods and taking the information provided by my dietician and my own culinary education to create a better way of cooking with a goal of making meal time more enjoyable again."
