Default New weight loss surgery book coming out in Sept.: The Weight-Loss Surgery Connection

While recently doing some research on Amazon.com, I came across a new WLS book coming out on September 26th. I don't know anything more about it than what's posted on Amazon... just thought others might find it of interest, too.

Link: The Weight-Loss Surgery Connection by Melissa deBin-Parish

Jim... it looks good. I pre-ordered a copy for me! Thanks for the tip!

Hm... Thinner Times should get credit from Amazon, huh?

You're welcome, Katie. If you think of it, let us know what you think of the book after you get it. I'm not sure if I'll buy it - at least not initially - I may see if I can get it through the library when it comes out...

Yeah, John should have an affiliate account set up with Amazon.com for Thinner Times. I would have been more than happy to use his affiliate code in the link... nice way to make a little money for TT.

Has your order shipped yet? If not, I'm wondering if you could add this book to your order?

I believe she is one of the owners of the gastric bypass group on MSN. She and her husband Dan are really great about helping people over there. I heard there was a book coming out.

Okay, that makes at least TWO people who've pre-ordered this book... Are you listening, John??? You could be getting a cut of the pie from this action...

Thank you, Elaine. And I'd love to know what you think of the book. Feel free to drop me a note or post back to this thread when you've had a chance to peruse it.
