Good Food After Weight Loss Surgery: Recipes by a Surgeon for Patients, Family and Friends

A weight loss operation is not an end point. It is a starting point for a solution to obesity. And it is not just about losing weight. It is also about restoring the health of obese patients to a normal level. To achieve this, it is important that the patient works together with the medical team during the follow-up period after the surgery, constantly monitoring what he/she does, with the help and support of the people around them. It is for this reason that Professor Kristel De Vogelaere, a specialist in weight loss surgery, has now written this cookbook. It is not another boring diet book, but an inspirational and beautifully illustrated guide to good eating, in which she makes delicious, classic recipes that are ideal for patients after weight loss surgery. In fact, these simple, tasty and healthy dishes are good for everyone: your family and friends will love them as well!

Professor Kristel De Vogelaere (°1968) is the surgeon in charge of the obesity department at the University Hospital in Brussels. For her, multidisciplinary pre- and post-operative care is just as important as the weight loss surgery itself. She is married and has three children.
