Packed full of practical advice on stocking up with the best ingredients; tips on food preparation, cooking and serving; WLS savvy on food supplements, fluids and special bariatric-friendly foods; it also has over 70 recipes to ensure you eat right with every bite.

Special sections and recipe colour coding ensures that the bariatric cook follows the 3 food stages and plans from early post fluids to mid-stage soft foods to finally 'eating for life'.
Countless bariatric professionals and patients now recommend this book to others as the best UK book or resource for eating after WLS.
“Carol is uniquely placed to understand the challenges of choosing the right foods after weight-loss surgery. She understands the surgery and the nutritional requirements whilst maintaining the enjoyment factor and ‘real life’. I recommend the book to all my patients and only wish it had been available after my own surgery in 2000. This has to be good for the whole family.’
Toni Jenkins, Nurse Consultant Bariatric Surgery
The easy-to-prepare recipes from breakfast through to pudding are perfect for WLS patients, regardless of procedure, but also for their families too. All focus on getting the nutrition you need and limit the high sugars and fats you don’t.
“Carol’s book is my bariatric bible...the book travels with me everywhere from support group to supermarket.” Barbara, Gastric Bypass Patient
Suggestions for planning ahead will prove invaluable for those who are about to embark on surgery (safe in the knowledge they will have something nutritious and suitable for when they come home) and take the guesswork out of what to have for supper for the post surgery working patient.
Price: £9.95

Return 2 Slender...Second Helpings
‘Return 2 Slender’…Second Helpings is the companion book to the original ‘Return to Slender’.
This book takes over from  where ‘Return to Slender’ checked out. There’s new advice and inside knowledge on supermarket shopping; ideas and recommendations for eating out; some tips on ‘mindful eating’; some thoughts and guidelines for upping the exercise; and finally some hints or ‘red flags’ as to when things might be going off-plan and how to regain control.
Not intended as a replacement for ‘Return to Slender’ the first book, it is a valuable new additional one, that also covers some ideas for breakfast; some ideas for lunch; some delicious bariatric-friendly snacks and entertaining options; as well as over 50 new recipes.
Losing weight and keeping the pounds/kilos off after WLS Largely depends upon eating the right foods, with the right nutrition, in the right amounts (my 3 R’s). ‘Return 2 Slender … Second Helpings’ provides you with these additional tools and some recipes that will work alongside your surgery, to win the weight-loss battle.
“We were pleased to have been asked by Carol to act as guinea pigs and try out the new recipes for her new book…she knows we are hard to please. They are sensational and not to be missed!’
Emma and Louise, Gastric Sleeve and Gastric Band Patients
