Summary: Waste of Time & Money
Review: As a WLS patient, I eagerly snatch up every book I can on the topic of weight loss surgery. I bought this book as soon as it came out and was sorely disappointed. I didn't find it to be helpful at all -- it was like a partial transcript of a rather uneventful support group meeting. If you are looking information on WLS, you would do much better with other books and online support resources.

Summary: First WLS Book purchase
Review: I was looking forward to the arrival of Tiny Bites. Imagine my disappointment when a book not much larger than my children's Golden Books arrived ... and not written any better than said Golden Books as well.

The first part of the book is mostly technical, explaining only two types of Gastric Bypass surgery. The rest of the book is a series of individuals stories. An effort was made to have a story about a number of different people ... each one with a different result post-operatively. However, they seemed contrived and I didn't feel as if I was learning anything factual.

All in all I was VERY disappointed in the book. I found more information of value using the Google Search engine. My advice if you REALLY want to buy it ... buy it used and save some money.
