The Real Skinny on WLS

Guys, at my support group last night, we had the 2 women authors who wrote The Real Skinny on WLS. They are 2 regular "josephines" who wrote a book with their surgeon. They are ABSOLUTELY hysterical. The kind of people everyone gravitates to - like an immediate best friend. They were so cool. They wrote the book after having surgery and realizing how many people have really poor or no follow-up care. It's a real-life type book. They didn't have personal trainers, personal chef's etc. Anyway, I bought the book last night so I could get it signed and it is VERY GOOD. Great if you're trying to decide if you want WLS and an excellent resource for anyone who has already had the surgery. I highly recommend it. You will be ROLLING it's so funny, and very informative but in an intersting way. I wish you guys could have all been there last night - it was a great meeting. We spent a lot of time talking about "little victories" like being able to cross your legs and them staying that way, tying your shoes on the top instead of the side, etc. In fact, because these two women couldn't find a suitable publisher, they started their own - Little Victories Press. They have 14 other books coming out later - one for spouses/family/friends of WLS patients, one about physical activity, one about PS. Anyway, I'm done promoting now - just wanted to share this awesome find!
