A new book that we like…

Many of you have been given a ‘gastric banding plate’ after your gastric banding surgery. The plate is designed and sold by Amanda Clark, a dietitian from Gold Coast, Australia.

Amanda has recently published a book which can accompany the plate called 'Portion Perfection for bands and sleeves'.

Low on words and high on pictures - it's easy with Portion Perfection for Bands and Sleeves - seeing is understanding. This book has been designed for Australians and New Zealanders having undergone gastric banding or sleeve gastrectomy surgery.

Amanda Clark has determined our most commonly prepared and bought meals and foods, and through careful analysis, determined exactly how much to have. She has added tips regarding specific foods that can be a problem for gastric banding.

This book is available separately or you can purchase the pack which includes The Portion Perfection bands and sleeves melamine plate and bowl to complete the concept.

The content has been thoroughly reviewed by bariatric surgeons and dietitians to ensure its practicality.
