This has got to be, in my opinion, the worst book I've ever had the misfortune to buy. If possible, I would have given it NO stars. I acquired no useful information regarding gastric bypass surgery, and I'm still wondering what the 'dark side' was of his surgery. The book is filled with the blatant bragging of a self-involved human being. It's loaded with extraneous information that I can only assume the author includes in an embarrassing attempt to impress the reader with how 'educated' the author is, and how much money he has. I'm disappointed that Amazon would even carry such a trivial tome. This one is going back. I feel like my money was taken under false pretenses.

I'd like to second the other reviewer's negative comments about this book. Don't waste your money: the author can't write, he can't spell, and I can only imagine that this book was self-published, because it certainly didn't have an editor. Reading this is a little like being stuck on an airplane next to an insufferable blowhard. I did not find it a useful resource for people considering WLS, and that's really the point, isn't it?
