Publishers Text

After her own successful gastric bypass surgery, Susan Leach dedicated herself to helping other post-ops adjust to their new regimen--eating mostly protein and few carbs. In Before and After, she offers 100 recipes tailored to the needs of post-operative eaters, from their first post-op protein shake to Thanksgiving Dinner, complete with low-carb, low-sugar desserts.


Her main course dishes, like Spiced Tuna Steaks with Fennel Red Pepper Saute, Sesame Roasted Chicken, and Spiced Beef Tenderloin with Roasted Garlic Cream pair perfectly with a simple salad or green vegetable, but a side of mashed potatoes or pasta can be added for family members or guests who are not limiting their carbohydrate intake.


Susan also answers questions about what to do when you reach a weight loss plateau, dumping, and plastic surgery after weight loss. Her high-energy, honest, and engaging narrative provides much-needed information and encouragement.
