Before & After - Susan Maria Leach (HarperCollinsPublishers)
Before & After is both a memoir and a cookbook—an intimate account of Susan Maria Leach’s own transformation, as well as a guide for those who have undergone or are considering the procedure. As Leach has learned in the seven years since her operation, weight-loss surgery is not an event with a finish line or a goal weight—it is the beginning of a new way of life.
Nominated for International Association of Culinary Professional Awards, 'Best First Cookbook', 'Best Health & Diet Book', and 'Cookbook of the Year'. Featured on NBC's TODAY Show and in People Magazine. A Barnes & Noble Staff Favorite.
'I recently purchased your book and I love it. There is so much insight, so much information, and the book is the best I have read with regards to answering all my questions for both pre and post op. I am having my surgery in two days and I have given the book to my mother-in-law so she can understand what I am going to go through. I wasn’t aware how mindful I will always have to be to continue to lose weight and to stay in bariatric wellness! I am an Ob/Gyn and I have already recommended your website to 4 people in two days!' - Ros
