The Weight Loss Surgery Workbook

- Unlike competing books, this guide emphasizes psychological preparation for surgery.- 34 percent of adults are not just overweight, but obese (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention 2006).Weight loss surgery patients who maintain the best results after the bariatric surgery aren't necessarily those with the best surgeons, but those who prepare themselves for sychological changes and lifestyle changes before the surgery even takes place. This workbook helps readers determine whether or not bariatric surgery is the best option for them - and, if it is, learn how to make these critical preparations in order to ensure a positive result.
