5 Stars Fabulous!!
I purchased the first edition of this book when I had RNY 5 years ago and learned so much from it! When I found myself struggling with a 20 pound regain 4 years later, I took the book off the shelf and re-read it. I was reminded of so many things that I had forgotten along the way. With the help of this book, I got back to the basics and cut out the bad habits that I allowed back in my life. My reclaimed weight is now gone and so are 25 additional pounds that I didn’t lose in the first place!! This book helped me to remember that I have a tool but it doesn’t work on it’s own. I absolutely recommend this book to anyone considering weight loss surgery as well as anyone that is already post-op and needing to remember where they came from. Additionally, it’s a wonderful book to share with friends and family members that have questions or concerns with your choice for surgery. Read it and pass it around the family!
5 Stars Check this book out first!
I had only planned on buying one WLS book because I only had a few questions left unanswered. Well, the first book told me everything I already knew and did not answer one of my questions. So one book became two and I ended up with 4 books when I finally decided to buy this book. Let me tell you, if you only want to buy one book then this is the book. You can find all the basic information about WLS on the internet and the surgeon will tell you all the basics too. But this book tells you things no other book talks in-depth about. This book is a must have for anyone who has had the surgery, is planning on having it, or is even considering it. You will read it again and again…I have.
5 Stars Great Book Full of Practical Information
Colleen Cook’s book is an excellent resource for people who are either considering weight loss surgery or who have already had the surgery. As the director of the National Association for Weight Loss Surgery (www.nawls.com), I talk to people every day who are struggling with long-term WLS success. This is one of the best books I’ve read on how to be successful. I found the information to be practical and very useful. I apply Colleen’s lessons to my WLS recovery every day.
5 Stars Great book to read even before surgery!
The book is actually geared towards those that have had any form of restrictive gastric surgery, but I found it very helpful in making the final decision to have the surgery. It’s straight forward and reads quickly. Can be read start to finish or just the area you’re struggling with.
5 Stars Nothing short of excellent!
This book is packed full of FACTS on how to loose and keep those pounds off for good. This is a must have for the long-term success of all weight loss surgery patients.

5 Stars This book changed my life!!!!
I read this book about a year and a half ago and have since lost 55 pounds! Everything in this book makes so much sense, you’d be a fool not to follow it. Everyone asks me what sort of diet I went on to lose the weight and everyone gets the same response from me, “I never went on a diet, I changed my life.” That is the whole essence of the food and exercise parts of this book. It focuses on “life changes” rather than dieting. I had already quit smoking about a year before reading this book, but even that section was helpful to me. If you’re ready for a life change… READ THIS BOOK!
