Books To Read About Wl Surgery?

Has anyone read any good/inspirational books from people who have had VSG or doctors who perform it? Would love to find something good to read on the topic. Thx!

    I've read several, but most were written by folks who had other surgeries besides the sleeve. One that I found interesting was "Passing for Thin". The author's journey convinced me that talking to a therapist was a GREAT idea after my sleeve surgery. :)

    I've really enjoyed his book too! I'm also reading Breaking Free From Emotional Eating and Health At Every Size. The last two aren't about WLS, but things that help just as much!
