U GOTTA HAVE IT

I have found the greatest book that has so far answered almost all the questions I have about WLS! I wish I had found it sooner. It's called Weight Loss Surgery for Dummies. It talks about what you should look for in a surgeon, what questions to ask, how to deal with insurance questions and problems, what to expect at the hospital, what complications can occur and how likely they are to occur with what type of surgery, things to bring to the hospital, what your diet afterwards will look like, recipes and tips on how/ what to eat, how to deal with telling others , etc., etc......I know a lot of these questions can be answered on this website as well, but it is so nice to just have it all in this one book. I strongly recommend this book. If anyone else has already read it let me know what you think. Mo

I have the book also.....I call it my Weight Loss Surgery Bible! Very informative book for both before and after WL surgery. Marleen

When I found out of the different surgeries I went down to the local library and they only had two books and this one was not it. So I called around to the different libraries in the next cities over and they found this one. You are correct as I still had numerous questions and no answers. This book is phenomenal, after reading it I at least felt better informed and less hesitant about the process. As you I recommend it to anyone who still has questions. Of course I had to return it to the library before I had surgery, but I am tempted to return and check it out again.

Thanks for posting back you guys! Good luck with your surgery and hope to see you on the loosing side! Mo
