Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - HELPED MY SISTER EMENSONALLY
My siser was very down and depressed after her lap-band prceedure I bought this book for her hoping it would help It was well worth the price she's back on track and loosing pounds and feeling so much better about herself!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



Rated by buyers 2 out of 5 stars - Nothing new
Was disappointed in this book. I didn't feel there was anything in it that I haven't read in the many other self-help books about overeating, and in the few others I've read on post-bariatric surgery life. A big let-down.



Rated by buyers 1 out of 5 stars - Dissapointing: Not a motivating or helpful guide.
I was dissapointed with this little book. Treatment of a really important componant of weight loss surgery, your emotions, was superficial. I felt it smacked of someone who had no personal experience of being overweight - I could be wrong. And while it's not essential that the author have had direct experience of being overweight, I just got the sense that the author didn't have a realistic view of what is required to overcome the emotional baggage that someone who has got to the point of having weight loss surgery has.

This is a light-weight book (no pun intended) that didn't provide me with any realistic useful tips to use on my weight-loss journey. The constrant referals to seek out professional help made the value of the book redundant.



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - WOW ..What a great Companion Book
A really good "feel good " book, that tells it upfront about how you can make this surgery successful for anyone. If you follow the instructions and use their guidelines you will find you don't want to leave this book behind. Easy read, wonderful Advice!



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - The Emotional First Aid Kit / Bariatric Surgery
I am a Bariatric Coordinator at a medical center in Nebraska. I have many books on bariatric surgery related to care and experience of the patient through all phases of surgery and aftercare. This by far is the best book I have found. It is very forthright and practical! I have members of my support group reviewing several copies that I ordered. We are strongly considering using this book for discusion at some of our support group meetings in 2009. I would encourage you to get this book because it really gives you a common sense approach to bariatric surgery as a patient. Thanks.
