A Whole New and Completely Delicious Way to Eat after Weight Loss Surgery

After her weight loss surgery in 2003, Patt Levine knew she would have to stick to a very restrictive diet, but there had to be something better than the "totally tasteless mush" her post-op food guidelines recommended. Levine put her cooking skills to work and now, in Eating Well after Weight Loss Surgery, she and collaborator Michele Bontempo-Saray offer over 140 original, low-fat, high-protein recipes that taste just as delicious pureed and chopped as they do served whole, so you can enjoy flavorful, satisfying meals through every stage of your post-op eating program and cook for your family and friends—all at the same time. These mouth-watering dishes, which cover everything from breakfast to dessert, include:

Crustless Spinach and Cheese Quiche * BBQ-Baked Chicken * Asian Turkey Dumplings * Cider-Glazed Pork Chops * London Broil with Horseradish Cream Moussaka * Salmon with Creamy Lime-Dill Sauce * Scallops Provencale * Orange-Ginger Tofu * Vegetable Frittata * Southwestern Tomato Soup * No-Noodle Zucchini Lasagna * Basic Cheesecake * Apricot and Strawberry Smoothie

Complete with advice from a certified nutritionist, helpful tips for stocking your pantry and refrigerator, and nutritional analyses for each recipe, Eating Well after Weight Loss Surgery is guaranteed to make eating a true pleasure and help you maintain your weight loss for years to come.

If you only buy one cookbook after WLS, this should be it!!.......2007-06-15

I LOVE this book! It has the kind of recipes I loved to prepare prior to WLS, only in a new (for me) low-fat, high-protein way.

I've prepared about 15 recipes from the cookbook and each and every one has been positively delicious - even in the early days when I had to puree them!

I made the Beef Stroganoff the other night and it was so delicious (and smelled so good) that I couldn't wait to warm up the leftovers the next night.

My family eats what I eat/prepare and they have really liked: Chicken Breasts with Creamy Tomato Sauce, No-noodle Zucchini Lasagna, Asian Marinated Scallops, Shrimp Italiano, Moussaka, Shrimp with Coconut-Curry Tomato Sauce, Tofu and Veggie Curry and several of the egg dishes.

The other thing I absolutely love is that each recipe has it's own nutritional information - seeing how much protein and calories each dish has, along with other nutrients, is so important! The authors also include information about how to prepare each item during each stage of the post-surgery process (less than 4 weeks, 4-8 weeks, etc.)

The less-than-positives (which shouldn't stop you from buying this book NOW) is one recipe that I needed to "doctor" (Orange-ginger Tofu - easily rescued with more orange juice and zest) and the fact that I never looked at slicing veggies like eggplant and zucchini horizontally &/or vertically, as is written in the book (shouldn't it be lengthwise &/or crosswise??) - this created some discussion amongst my family members!

Yes, some of the recipes take a little bit of time - cook on the weekend and portion out for your other meals. And some use ingredients that are a little more expensive - buy on sale or consider what you are saving by not buying Haagen Daz and chips and avoiding fast food a couple times a week!

Trust this Italian foodie - this is good, real food!

Handy post-surgery.......2007-03-26

Tasty, healthy meals that have handy recommendations according to surgery type and post-op stage.

Everyone would love these recipes!.......2007-03-07

What a great cookbook! I got Lap-band surgery and was looking for recipes that both me and my family could enjoy. I found them! The recipes in this book are amazing! They are easy to prepare and delicious! They were something my family would eat with me. I love that each recipe breaks down what stage post-op you can enjoy the recipes at. That was so helpful. I highly recommend this book for people with any type of weight loss surgery!

Good Mix of Recipes.......2007-01-20

I especially appreciate the serving guidelines provided for each recipe. It gives quantity and timeline by surgery type. The ingredients are not too exotic -- all things you can find in your local Safeway-type store.

Eating Well .......2007-01-11

This book has some great recipes that can be shared with the family not just the person who had surgery. They break it down so that you know which recipes you can eat/drink during the weeks and months following surgery. This book was recommended to me by people who have already had gastric bypass.

Product Description

Introduction from the Author My first experience living in New York City was when I moved into my NYU dorm and had no idea how to get anywhere. The week before classes started, I would wander the streets staring at my new surroundings, taking in every vendor, every boutique, every pigeon. At the end of each day, I came back to my new home with the sights of the city swirling through my head, and I was excited to be living and going to school in the heart of everything Id seen. When I had applied to NYU, I was looking for such experiences. When I arrived here, I found them. Im still excited at the beginning of every semester, knowing that I will continue to live and study in New York. In fact, a big reason students come to NYU is that its urban location leaves room for endless learning, internship, and entertainment possibilities. New York Citys fast-paced, stylish environment draws many applications from all over the world. But while the initial allure of the school may be its desirable locale, when students arrive, they find out what it is to study in a truly diverse, intellectual atmosphere. Coupled with New York Universitys outstanding tradition of professors and academics is its notoriously ever-expanding nature. Each year, improvements are made to the University, as evidenced by the opening of the Palladium Residence Hall and facilities and the unveiling of the Kimmel Student Center, which provides a place for students to learn and study. Whatever your reason for coming to NYU, know that it will be a thrilling journey if you take advantage of all the city and the University have to offer. This books purpose is to show you what is available at New York University so you can make the best informed decision possible and even find your own adventure.

ASIN: 0415287561

Book Description

Wittgenstein, Mind and Meaning offers a provocative re-reading of Wittgenstein's later writings on language and mind, and explores the tensions between Wittgenstein's ideas and contemporary cognitivist conceptions of the mental. Williams's theme throughout is the anti-individualism that she takes to underlie Wittgenstein's criticism of Cartesian thought.

This book addresses both Wittgenstein's later works as well as contemporary issues in philosophy of mind thought and lays the foundation for a social conception of mind. It provides fresh insight into the later Wittgenstein and raises vital questions about the foundations of cognitivism and its wider implications for psychology and cognitive science.

Customer Reviews:

Brilliant pedagogic discourse. Difficult but enlightening.......2005-01-01

This book is not for those who may have difficulty navigating the academic discourse of post-modern linguistic philosophy. But if one has an ear for the dialect, the author's development of the implications of a latter-Wittgensteinian approach to meaning is, I believe, unparalleled, refreshing, and imaginatively insightful. Rather than interpreting the subject from within (ultimately leading to philosophical implosion), the trajectory is drawn with an attack on the representational theory of mind, through the work of the Russian psychologist L.S. Vygotsky, into nebulous conclusions that may well beneficially impact education, social theory, and the cognitive sciences in general. If you can hack the academics, it's the best book on the subject I've seen.

Highest Recommendation.......2000-07-23

Every chapter in this collection is excellent. But "Rules, Community and the Individual" (Chapter 6) is one of the best articles ever written about Wittgenstein's thought. I have learned so much from this book. I could never put my finger on what I intuitively disliked about the Baker/Hacker "internal relation" argument. Professor Williams' analysis reveals the missing link. I recommend this book to anyone with an interest in Wittgenstein, especially those who think they know "what Wittgenstein said."

An outstanding and original treatment of Wittgenstein,,.......1999-09-19

Meredith Williams is one of the United States' foremost Wittgenstein scholars. Her book encompasses many significant and lively issues in the philosophy of mind, psychology and language. Hers is a refreshingly original voice: lucid, rigorous, reflective - but, above all, profoundly informed by a range of philosophical traditions and arguments.

Her work is, on its face, an attack against neo-cartesianism in the behavioral and neurosciences, but its scope is actually far wider than that. She takes on a range of currently fashionable positions in philosophy and logic with a deft and professional style which makes her a unique contributor to the debates in which she engages so powerfully.

I recommend this book to all serious philosophers and students of mind, psychology, social sciences and biology.

Book Description

The Christmas Box phenomenon continues with this special audio edition of the 19th-century classic Christmas tale featured in the multimillion-copy #1 best seller The Christmas Box and read by its author, Richard Paul Evans.

"Here is a charming Christmas tale. Read this to your little one.' I took the book from her outstretched arm and examined the title -- Christmas Every Day by William Dean Howells." So recalls the narrator in Richard Paul Evans' The Christmas Box, as the elderly heroine Mary Parkin begins to help him see the importance of spending time with his daughter and leads him to an understanding of the true meaning of Christmas in the story that has captured the hearts of millions of listeners and readers.

Fans of The Christmas Box -- and anyone with a special holiday wish -- will listen with delight as Evans reads Howells' 1892 classic tale of a little girl who learns why Christmas comes but once a year...and how strange life would be if it really could be Christmas Every Day!

Not Christmas without this story.......2001-01-30

When she was in the third grade my older sister bought a little book of christmas stories with the nickles she had saved by not having milk at break time. "Christmas Every Day" is our favorite story from this carefully preserved little book. Our mother still reads "Christmas Every Day" every year for her grandchildren. Though we are all grown we still enjoy the story too. Even my oldest sister's hyper-active 7 year old sit's quietly for his grandma's reading of "Christmas Every Day."

Book Description

Decolonizing the Academy asserts that the academy is perhaps the most colonized space. As we enter the twenty-first century, this has become even clearer now that the academy is one of the primary sites for the production and re-production of ideas that serve the interests of colonizing powers. Operating at the macro level in terms of the state and at the micro level in various applications, these interests include the organization of the disciplines, the marginalization of interdisciplinary studies, the re-assertion of masculinities, and the operations of class, privilege, and hierarchy.

This collection of essays argues that African diaspora theory has the possibility of interrupting the current colonizing process and re-engaging the decolonizing process at the level of the mind, as emphasized by Ngugi wa Thiong'o in an earlier contribution. In addition, the collection asserts that this will be an ongoing project worthy of being undertaken in a variety of fields of study as we confront the challenges of the twenty-first century.

Book Description

Salt Fork State Park is Ohio's largest park, covering about 20,000 acres of rolling, forested terrain just eight miles northeast of Cambridge. Despite the park's timeless wilderness feel, for almost 150 years farmers worked this land, many occupying the same property for five generations. In the 1960s when the park was created, evidence of that agrarian past quickly receded. Over time, new forest reclaimed fields and pastures, and wildlife returned in abundance. All but one of the region's farms, mills, covered bridges, and schoolhouses were removed—the Kennedy Stone House Museum lives on as a reminder of the region's past, dedicated to preserving the stories of the families who once made a life on these lands. Salt Fork State Park celebrates the heritage of the parklands, offers glimpses into the lives, labor, and leisure of its residents, and points the curious explorer toward some of the many remnants of the park's agrarian past.
