Today's Moods; Good  listening to 70's Disco and 80's New Wave. The Patient's Guide to Weight Loss Surgery: Everything You Need to Know about Gastric Bypass and Bariatric Surgery by April Hochstrasser,

A few days ago I picked this book up thinking it would be interesting and maybe a little informative……WRONG.

 It is one horror story after another…it has statistics I could not locate anywhere else. The personal stories included in the book are nothing but fiction. They paint a grim future if you are planning on having any weight loss procedure. It tells you that your life will be spent trying not to die from malnutrition and vitamin loss.  I don’t understand the title “everything you need to know” because it only shows one side. I am going out tonight to dance and have a wild time but first my crew and I are going to have sushi. out for now Keith

Keith, If you haven't already, check out Susan Maria's WLS Before and After, and A Dummie's Guide To WLS. Another book that has been recommended but I have not been able to find is The Real Skinny On WLS. I have Books A-Million trying to get me a copy of this one. Susan Maria's book is wonderful and includes some great recipes. It has just come out in a new printing. The old one has a pink cover with SM on it. Mmmmmmmmmmmmmm, sushi!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

P E A C E - It does not mean to be in a place where there is no noise, trouble, or hard work. It means to be in the midst of those things and still be calm in your heart.
