Eat It Up! The Complete Mind/Body/Spirit Guide to a Full Life After Weight Loss Surgery (Paperback) Review

Eat It Up The Complete Mind/Body/Spirit Guide to a Full Life After Weight Loss SurgeryI am a weight loss surgery patient and I've been looking for this kind of book and help for years! I found myself nodding my head, highlighting sentences and paragraphs, and feeling understood. There is a huge void in the world of weight loss surgery that is seldom being filled. Those of us who are 3 or more years out of the surgery come to realize that it isn't about losing the weight, but keeping it off and that means dealing with the mental and psychological issues surrounding food, eating and exercise. The literature and follow-up provided seldom addresses those issues. This book does. And Dr. Stapleton has done it in a way that is very accessible. She lays out the issues one by one and gives examples, how our minds tend to work (or don't work), ideas for change and even exercises at the end of the chapters to help us get on the right track to change how we think and do.It's an important book to read and digest wherever you are on your journey toward a healthier life through weight loss, but especially helpful to those of us who are struggling. I've been recommending this book to my friends and coaching clients and highly recommend it to anyone with eating issues. It's a great companion to my own book "Fat No More - Long Term Success Following Weight Loss Surgery" which addresses many of the physical issues and some of the mental issues facing weight loss surgery patients.
