'I have looked at Carol's book and website over the last year and have been most impressed. So much so, I have recommended them to others.' Mr Shaun Appleton, Bariatric Surgeon

'This is the only UK bariatric cookery book I recommend. The prescribed portion control in the recipes is great - very useful to use with patients as a baseline for meal ideas. I love the shopping lists and stock-cupboard essentials. I have and would definitely recommend this book to all WLS patients for inspiration and to bariatric professionals as a useful resource.' Charlotte Harper, Specialist Bariatric Dietician

'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 her book to all my patients and only wish they had been available after my own surgery in 2000. This has to be good for the whole family.' Toni Jenkins, Specialist Bariatric Nurse Consultant

' I think Carol's book should be available in all bariatric surgery receptions and hospitals.' Janet, Pre-Op WLS Patient

'Carol understands the challenges that weight-loss surgery patients face when trying to cook healthy and nutritious meals for themselves and their families. We are sure they will benefit from her advice and recipes.' Shaw Somers and Guy Slater, Streamline Surgical and TV's 'Fat Doctor' Surgeons
