Has anyone got the book advertised on here about the sleeve?

I want to get the book and the two other "what others bought along with this book" on Amazon. Is it worth the money or is there a better book all about the Sleeve, pre-op, post-op, what to expect before and after the procedure. What you will be eating and how long before resuming some other foods besides soft foods, etc...Thanks

      Anything sleeve specific is better. Many have bought the book and said nothing but good things about it.

      My "Bible" is Successful Weight Loss with THE GASTRIC SLEEVE, by Dr. Guillermo Alvarez.

    Yep, I ordered several sleeve books this week and downloaded for my kindle. The one I like the best because it is straightforward and to the point is Dr. Guillermo Alvarez's book. He also has a youtube channel that has over 200 videos on sleeve surgery, clients, Q & A, etc. He even has a video of him doing a live surgery (not for the faint of heart)...pretty cool stuff. Here is a link to his channel, he is doing my surgery Oct 1. So excited to get my band out and have sleeve:
