Turns out, though I had my surgery a week ago at "Boston's best hospital" (aren't they all?) I got little-to-no individualized attention or consideration, and throughout received canned responses and lowest common denominator information.Enter Dr. Vuong's book. Without it I truly - no joke - could not have done this journey even to the extent that I have. I luckily found it through searching Amazon, ordered it, and spent the month before surgery reading and re-reading it. Suddenly I had informed questions to ask! Suddenly I felt like I'd indeed have a normal life when the initial stages were over - but not the SAME life. Yes, I"d have an ice cream with my son again, or tapas in Spain. But no, I'd not revert to doing all the same things that had brought me to the miserable point of surgery in the first place.Dr. Vuong is a gastric patient's best friend, no kidding, and I"m not a relative :) . His little video shorts are wonderful, his seemingly simple (and poorly named) "Weight Loss Surgery Success" a useful, concise guide to thinking differently (as opposed to the usual self-involved tomes on "mindfulness" and eating that spend much of their text focusing on the author). I've just learned about "periscope" on which he apparently gives broadcasts, and i intend to follow him on that.He's more than just informational. He's hopeful, he's kind, he's clear, and he gives action points rather than theory. Do this! It'll help!I'm am admittedly a bit emotional - first days of gastric surgery are not the easiest. But I honestly feel that had I not found Dr. Vuong's book, I'd be in a world of confusion and unhappiness right now. How very lucky we are that he wrote this.Dr Vuong, thank you. You've helped more than you can possibly know. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excited for this journey with this exquisite tool! *by on Reviewed in the United States August 4, 2016* I am currently in the process of preparing myself for the gastric sleeve procedure. I haven't met with my physician yet to actually discuss this but I am leaning more towards the gastric sleeve than the RNY just because I feel it has fewer risks, complications, and malabsorption issues. I bought this book to educate myself a little more, and because it was HIGHLY recommended by the folks on my weight loss surgery support group online. After getting this book and looking it over, I'm super excited to jump in and start reading! At a wuick glance I'm very pleased to see there are extremely helpful images. I have always been the "learn by watching" type of person so to have illustrations is very nice. Also, I LOVE that this book has little quizzes at the end of the sections to make sure you're actually absorbing the information that you're reading. If not you can always go back and see where your issues were, reread and make sure you're ready for your procedure! While I still have a long, long way to go I believe this book will be a HUGE help in making my gastric sleeve a success in a big, big way! I am definitely pleased that I made this purchase, especially for the price. Every little bit of help counts and this, in my opinion, is going to be a HUGE help on educating myself and preparing for my journey ahead! Thank you so much for making this available to the public!! Such a wonderful learning tool! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ This is a GREAT resource for anyone considering or has had gastric sleeve *by on Reviewed in the United States July 30, 2014* This is a GREAT resource for anyone considering or has had gastric sleeve. The book actually focuses on changing how you think and about making better choices which is crucial to success. Following the 3 rules laid out seems easy enough but putting them into practice is different. So the one topic I was hoping to read more about was eating--specifically how/what to eat. Yes, I know protein first, best nutritional choices and all you can eat fruits and veggies... As someone who is literally changing my relationship with food these choices are easier said than done. I simply wish there was a sample mealplan as a framework to get started. Otherwise, great read!!
