I would like to find a great book on WLS, that tells the ins and outs of it. I am sure I want this surgery but really want to find out the good, the bad and the ugly, I would like to understand what to expect after WLS..

Thanks You

I haven't gotten it yet, but my friend did and she found it very informative... kudos @AlexBrecher ... there is also the Success Habits book that gives you a lot of info... and the internet is a plethora of info on the subjects... if you have a surgeon already, check with them on the sites they recommend as well...

good luck on your Quest... :)
