Default The Real Skinny on Weight Loss Surgery...

By Julie Janeway, Karen Sparks and Dr. Randal S Baker

OMG! I'm reading this book... and it is fantastic! It's written by two WLS patients and Milady Beth's Surgeon!!! WhooHooo!

I don't know if it's been discussed here before or not, but it is a "must read" for TT folks.

I just finished reading a section on strictures---Desiree and Simone come to mind as they are going through this now... I'm also reminded of the TT veterans here who have been there and done that!

There is a lot of humor and wit in the book so far (I'm only on page 55... Check your library or pick up a copy... a very good-good-good resource!!!
I got my copy from the library, but will probably pick up a copy to KEEP and highlight sections for future reference... Hmmmm.... maybe put it on my Christmas list

PS: I'm also listening to a recorded book, "YOU: On a Diet" --- whoa! Lots of details about hormones, biology, food processing (not the machine), etc... all with contemporary humor... I think I need to put that book on my Xmas list too... Somehow I think I need to see the pictures... LOL!!!

[edit]
PS2: Just found another thread ---probably where I heard of this book in the first place... LOL! Beth - you have a might "kewl" surgeon and team there... I'm totally impressed!!!
Can't call my unedjekated about RNY!!!
