It contains over 100 delicious recipes from distinguished chefs of leading restaurants across the United States and recipe favorites from friends and family. It is the result of the passion of a mother of a child who lost excessive weight due to a struggle with anxiety and two knowledgeable and experienced registered dietitians who know that there is an underserved segment of people dealing with undernourishment and life altering weight loss. In fact all three (of us) have learned through different work and life experiences, that being underweight and struggling to maintain or gain weight can be just as, if not more physically and emotionally difficult. Since obesity is currently at a record level in the United Sates, malnutrition resulting from low food intake is easily ignored until it gets to a very dangerous point. There are many reasons why people are underweight, ranging from genetics and/or psychological reasons to temporary or on-going medical conditions and diseases. When a patient has something interfering with their appetite and food intake (illness, pain, taste changes, depression), the goal is to fuel the body with calories; in certain cases any calories to spare a person from ending up on medical nutrition therapy. Included within the pages of this cookbook are tips on boosting calories and keeping food preparation new and interesting, along with important information related to appetite, eating and weight gain. We hope to provide general concepts and advice and tempting recipes that you will want to try. Our book includes many delicious recipes to help make it easier to enjoy eating and gain weight along with charts, techniques, heart healthy substitutes, drinks and some lesser known secrets for increasing your appetite and food intake. We hope that you find the pages within this book informative and helpful, but more important we hope that you find support, good food, hope and health!
