Check out amazon I bought about 6 books there on lapband. They also have good ones on emotional eating one is a workbook.

Cheri

I really enjoyed Jon Gabriel's "The Gabriel Method" and Geneen Roth's "Women, food and God".

I would also suggest anything that uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT).

Have fun.

my dr. recommended "Fighting Weight" by Kaileah Ali, the boxers daughter.

She had lapband and this is her story.

I haven't read it yet but will soon.

Hi,

I bought Dr. Ariel Ortiz's book, "Lap-Band for Life". I have really enjoyed it. I wish I'd had it pre-operatively, that would have been great. I was able to find it on Amazon.com.

Good Luck!

Roger Gould's Shrink Yourself has really good tools for tackling emotional eating. The Food and Feelings Workbook by Karen R. Koenig is also very helpful.
