Winning After Losing: Keep Off the Weight You've Lost--Forever [Bargain Price] (Hardcover) Review

Anyone who dismisses this book as superficial you-can-do-it-if-you-try stuff isn't willing to do the work to keep off the weight. Come on, Stacey lost over 350 pounds and is keeping it off -- she doesn't do it by simply thinking positive.She tells us how she does do it, and if it works for her, as addicted as she was, it ought to work for anyone willing to do the work. Personally, I found her book very inspiring, and it's given me concrete methods that have been easier for me to latch on to than methods I've seen in any other book. I urge anyone who may be killing herself with food to try this book. It may be your best chance at saving your life. (And by the way, I didn't see a single spelling or grammatical error in the entire book, and I'm a professional editor.)

It Ain't Over 'til the Thin Lady Sings: How to Make Your Weight-Loss Surgery a Lasting Success [Paperback] Review

Oh yawn, I thought. Another book by a gastric bypass patient explaining how to make things work long-term. But this book is certainly different than several others I've read by post-bypass patients. The author is a certified addictions counselor, and she tackles one of the most difficult aspects of weight loss by ANY means, be it weight-loss surgery or a diet and exercise regimen and that is the psychological aspects of what cause us to overeat and become obese in the first place. There is some very basic information about WLS itself and about post-op care and eating, but not much.

It is refreshing to read a book that doesn't give lists of what you can and can't eat, huge recipe sections, long lists of do's and don'ts. It's also refreshing to read a book in which the majority of the content is not all about the author and her story from fat to fit and how fabulous life is now. This book is about YOU. There are some anecdotes about the author's personal experiences and the experiences of some of her clients (she facilitates WLS support groups and deals with chronic overeaters), but it's mostly exercises encouraging you to find your own answers and gives you tools to help you work through your own "demons" and to develop strategies to let go of the old behaviors and develop healthy new ones. It also encourages you to come up with a post-op program that works for YOU rather than just following someone else's lists of do's and don'ts. This is an aspect of obesity in general and WLS in particular that I feel is very neglected and this book is a welcome addition to any collection of books dealing with WLS.

That said, I do feel it's somewhat incomplete with regard to the lack of information about the surgery itself, physical followup care, and I don't believe it emphasizes enough the importance of putting protein first, and her protein recommendations run lower than my own research indicates is necessary. The vital necessity of vitamin supplementation after gastric bypass is also not addressed forcefully enough, I don't think. As an RN working in a GI clinic, I talk with many post-ops who are quite malnourished down the road and find that their supplementation is very underdone. But since so many others of these types of books are just the opposite--emphasizing the physical aspects but ignoring the psychological, I do feel this book is an essential addition to any WLS patient's library, but I cannot say that it is a complete and comprehensive guide to WLS.

I myself am a year post-op RNY, and I did find the book very helpful, although not always pleasant, as some of the psychological things I have put on the back burner and it wasn't easy dragging them into the light. Still, I believe for long-term success, the author is absolutely correct in stating that these things MUST be addressed. The book will remain on my "keeper" shelf and I intend to drag it out periodically to refer to. Well done, and many thanks to Michelle for writing this book!

Product Description:
This sensitive, sympathetic book helps readers determine whether or not weight-loss surgery is right for them. Author Michelle Ritchie shares both her personal journey as a successful weight-loss surgery patient and her professional advice as an experienced weight-loss counselor. In sometimes funny, sometimes painful prose, she discusses her life before and after surgery and bluntly analyzes her own complicity in her obesity. As she describes her four-year battle to maintain her new, healthy weight, Ritchie emphasizes personal responsibility, reminding readers that surgery is not a quick-fix solution but a tool that works only as well as the choices patients make after the procedure. Also included are a detailed description of gastric bypass surgery; its pros and cons; tips for keeping weight off after surgery; daily food plans and sample shopping lists; information on cross-addictions; and a thoughtful discussion on intimacy and relationships after surgery.

Fighting Weight: How I Achieved Healthy Weight Loss with "Banding," a New Procedure That Eliminates Hunger--Forever (Paperback) Review

I originally bought this because it was one of the few books available about Lap band surgery.I'll admit I was prejudiced against it at the outset because the writer is a celebrity, so how much similiarity to my own experiences could she possibly have?Well, I was wrong in my preconceived notions.Khaliah's journey before the Lap Band is similiar to those of many overweight folks - though I am thankful that mine wasn't as prominently displayed in the limelight as hers.Her story is very personable and I found that learning about her failures and learning curve in obtaining and living with the band were the most informative sections of the book.Her doctors interject their chapters in between hers and are very informative as well.I found a goodly bit of information that's available in other books, but it was Khaliah's personal journey that I learned the most from.I hope that she comes out with a second book for living with a lap band - something with her average menus, receipes, workouts, eating out experiences, etc.Thank you for writing this book, it was a very pleasant read indeed! :^)

KISS Guide to Weight Loss (Paperback) Review

This book packed with information for those not only seeking to lose weight, but those wanting to create a healthier lifestyle. There are twenty chapters divided into six sections.The reader is expected to get a notebook and complete the various assignments given throughout the book.Topics covered in the book include everything from "Why lose weight?" to "The ABC's of Nutrition", "Living with your diet" and "Diet Troubleshooting". But the focus isn't just on food. There are several chapters dedicated to exercise and various other topics, like finding support and meal planning.
This is not a book for anyone looking to lose weight fast.It's geared for those who are willing to take their time, take a good look at themselves, their habits, their lifestyle, and consciously make changes in their life to create healthier living.The journal assignments are interesting.One, for example, is to write your hopes-and your fears-about losing weight.You may not think there are fears holding you back but once you start writing, it's interesting what comes forward.
Although the book may be a bit more expensive than other weight loss books, it can easily serve as a lifelong guide to keeping balance.It's full of pictures and illustrations that keep the reader entertained.The only bad thing is - well, it can't do the work for you, and that's a real bummer!

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

I 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.

Extraordinary Taste [Paperback] Review

I love this book.I had WLS in April of 2007 and the recipes in this book are perfect for the stage I am in right now.The recipes keep the meat moist and easy for a RNY patient to eat.The foods are not bland though, and I love spicy.My favorites are the "Fiery Cheeseburger" and "Chicken Verde Quiche".Fantastic!!!The author uses easy to find and inexpensive ingredients.She is not promoting an online business that sells expensive protein powders and vitamins.Don't get me wrong I love my protein shakes and find them to be an invaluable way to get the recommended protein in, but it is refreshing to find a bariatric recipe book that is not hawking anything.She just offers easy, healthy and delicious recipes.I wish I had purchased this sooner...it is my new favorite and I have a lot of cookbooks.

Product Description:
The adage says most people won't take action until their back is up against the wall and there's nothing to do but come out swinging. My back was against the wall! But it wasn't the fact that I had sleep apnea and needed a machine just so I could draw a breath. It also wasn't the fact that I could not cross my legs; shop for clothes in regular stores; walk for more than ten minutes without my back killing me; participate in sport activities, or even sit in an airplane without a seat belt extender. I, like many of you reading this book, was already numb to all the jokes from little kids or stares from adults, so those things never became a factor of the day I knew.The day I knew that I had to do something -- the day that I absolutely had to lose weight -- was when I couldn't even wipe my own backside. When you can't even reach around your own massive belly, or reach behind your own back to clean yourself, something has got to be done. At that point I was well over 450 pounds.It was an embarrassing secret that I thought I would take to my grave! No matter what made you choose this drastic change in your body and lifestyle, you should be proud of yourself for making the decision. Contrary to popular belief, surgery is not the easy way out. It's a major life altering choice that you and your family will have to live with for the rest of your lives. But, what a life you now have to live!This book will tell the story of an overweight child who became an obese adult and then decided to do something about it when his back was against the wall. Also, with help of an expert in her field, we'll show you how to achieve your goal weight and maintain it through the proper diet and exercise long after the first incision was ever made.

Product Description:
Weight loss surgery is a life-altering approach to finally free yourself of the obesity that has gripped so many of us for most of our lives. But with the interest in the surgery comes a dizzying variety of questions such as where to begin, what surgery to have, do I qualify, will my insurance pay for the surgery, does it really work, what will my life be like afterwards, and how can I give up my relationship with food? This FOURTH EDITION book deals with all of that and much more. You will know what pre-op tests are usually necessary and why, what vitamins to take, the role of water and exercise, the 4 Rules of Success, the Window of Opportunity, what complications may occur, what to take to the hospital, and how to deal with all of the physical and emotional issues that surround this surgery. Also included in this FOURTH EDITION is an example of an appeal letter that includes many valuable references to studies that will be of interest to the insurance company that denied you coverage. This edition now includes an informed consent quiz to test your knowledge of the risks and benefits of weight loss surgery. The book begins by guiding the reader through that big step in deciding to have surgery and then how to choose a surgeon. The author then discusses, in a very straightforward manner, the various operations available along with comparative advantages and disadvantages. This is followed by a very realistic description of what to expect during the hospital stay and during recovery. Some excellent advice is provided to help make the journey as safe and smooth as possible. The section on adjusting to new, healthy eating habits after surgery is full of very useful and practical guides. The book continues with some very practical suggestions on how to cope with and maintain success. Every issue of your life and health through the weight loss surgery journey is explored. The final chapter written by her husband, Frank, is targeted directly to a patient's family members and "significant others." It poignantly addresses some of the anxieties and concerns held by loved ones who may have strong doubts about weight loss surgery based on ignorance. This book, written by someone who had the RNY surgery and succeeded, is a "must-have" for anyone considering weight loss surgery to "find the thin person hiding inside you."

Personal trainer Pam Harrelson shares both inspiration and valuable up-to-date information for those struggling with obesity.

If a person is obese, or just average size and caught for decades in the terrible cycle of dieting, Pam's unique message can capture their attention! Bariatric surgery is helpful for many people, yet they often regain their weight because they don't learn healthy new habits for long-term maintenance. "The Rest of the Truth" is a must read for anyone considering any surgery to aid weight loss or for anyone who has had such a surgery but is still having difficulty maintaining their desired weight, or having re-gained all their weight years post surgery. Research reveals that the majority of ten year post op patients have not maintained their weight loss. Research also reveals a high suicide rate among these patients. Over a 16 year period Pam and her husband had repeated bariatric surgeries. Because of her overall experience, Pam is neither pro-surgery nor anti-surgery. Pam's well researched message should motivate any person with a food addiction or a sedentary lifestyle, at whatever size they may be. The focus of this book is on educating the reader on the often- overlooked causes of overeating and on the importance of making lifetime changes in eating and exercise habits for lifetime weight loss success.

Product Description:
If you are one of the 40 million Americans overweight to the point of recommended surgical intervention, the Adjustable Gastric Band (AGB or "the band") may be the safest, most effective weight-loss method for you.
Unlike conventional weight-loss surgery, which can lead to serious medical complications and nutritional deficiencies, the AGB is a minimally invasive procedure that leaves the digestive system completely intact. Weight Loss Surgery with the Adjustable Gastric Band provides a comprehensive weight management program, whether you're considering or preparing for the procedure or already living with the band. Expert laparoscopic surgeon Dr. Robert Sewell and "patient-expert" Linda Rohrbough evaluate all the promises, hype, and misinformation about this popular surgical solution--including preparation, the procedure itself, and the required post-op lifestyle changes.
Drawing from interviews with dozens of AGB patients, you'll hear of the particular challenges with the band, success stories, and even the medical "miracles" (such as remission of type 2 diabetes)--alongside expert insight from nutrition, exercise, and psychology authorities.
Weight Loss Surgery with the Adjustable Gastric Band is the essential guide to help you commit to a healthy regime and affect the lifestyle changes to lose weight and manage your hunger--for the rest of your life.
