I'll certainly let you know when I get it and read through it...This is the 2nd ed of the book, so perhaps that means the 1st edition was popular? Hopefully it's useful. ;)

Yes, please post a review. I'd love to know if the Sleeve is included. There's a few books out now that are for RNY and Band, but not Sleeve.

I had a difficult time ordering it on Amazon. It is a little bit tough to find. My therapist actually recommended the book. I will let you know once I get mind, and read it.

I bought it at Half.Com through the page I noted above... The original price was about $85 they were selling it for, but I wrote the seller, told them if they wanted to make a sale, I would buy for $25, and they lowered the price. It is up for that price now... so I hope you can get it! :laugh0:

I found the book on Amazon.com also at fairly low prices for the used ones which are from my previous experience in good to nearly new condition. Good find you can look through some of the pages at Amazon. Thanks for posting.

Cool! Let me know what you think... I'll do the same. I know there was an older edition that was on Amazon pretty cheaply. Glad you found it, we'll compare notes!

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?
