Foodist is an approach that actually celebrates food while taking you through the nutrition and psychology involved in eating well to help you move beyond the daily obstacles and bad habits that keep the tasteless, empty, and unsatisfying food-like products on your plate. Losing weight no longer has to be about sacrifice, deprivation, and willpower, and food will turn from something you fight into something you can actually love again. As Darya writes, "You don't need a diet. You need an upgrade."

A Pound of Cure was written by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon, who has identified a style of eating that can bring about the same metabolic changes seen after gastric bypass surgery. The shifts in your metabolism that block hunger and prevent weight-loss plateaus after surgery can be obtained by focusing your diet on nutrient-rich foods like fruits and vegetables. The style of eating outlined shows you how to use food to control hunger, eliminate cravings, and prevent the slowdown in your metabolism that plagues typical starvation diets.

Sound advice
I’m a little over a year out from my surgery. I listened to this book prior to surgery and after my gastric sleeve. I’m getting ready to listen to it again. I’m 5’8:
Highest weight 293
Current weight 188
Goal weight 175
His advice works. And he supplies the reasons why his advice works. He also has a YouTube channel you can follow.
I don’t like some the voice of the narrator when he asks the questions, but that’s personal preference.

Best Book On The Gastric Sleeve
This book is so helpful and I absolutely learned so much from it. It’s packed with information about what to expect before surgery and after surgery. What you may or may not experience. It has quizzes, and has chapter summaries.
Dr. Duc C. Vuong has created The texture scale and goes over what it means. It’s been a great help. I purchased the book (softcover) in 2016 and wore out the pages, marked them as well. Very informative. He goes over how to handle work, holiday, birthday parties or special occasions and what you may or may not experience. I recommend this book especially those individuals who are looking for the ultimate success with their new tool.
