Adjustable Gastric Band... a way out,
By Onysia (The North Country) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Laparoscopic Adjustable Gastric Banding: Achieving Permanent Weight Loss with Minimally Invasive Surgery (Hardcover)
Jessie is knowlegeable, direct and deeply committed to your success with the Adjustable Gastric Band. Think of this book more as a "Banding Coach" as you make a transition from being trapped to a new sense of self honesty, freedom and empowerment. She lets you know about Banding and the changes you will be asked to make but more importantly she KNOWS from the depths of her heart that YOU CAN DO IT! and by the end of the book you are likly to accept her professional opinion as well.

Jessie Ahroni may be the foremost expert,
By "willo_in_denver" (Denver, CO United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Laparoscopic Adjustable Gastric Banding: Achieving Permanent Weight Loss with Minimally Invasive Surgery (Paperback)
Jessie Ahroni may be the foremost expert in the US on support, adjustment and follow-up of adjustible gastric banding patients. An experienced "bandster" herself, now working in a bariatric practice, Jessie is famous in our little community for her wit, wisdom and straight talk. A compilation of her know-how and best, time-tested advice is included along with case studies of people who have struggled and been successful in overcoming every obstacle, and using this tool to achieve remarkable success. Highly recommended!

Good for newbies,
By Web Geek (South Ogden, UT United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Laparoscopic Adjustable Gastric Banding: Achieving Permanent Weight Loss with Minimally Invasive Surgery (Paperback)
First the good:
The book is written in plain english and is very, very easy to read. Jessie covers the basics of the band very well and provides good descriptions for what it's like after you have the band. Now the bad: I felt like this book was just a repetition for what I already knew because of prior research on the web or common sense. I was hoping to find more detailed information about after-care and diet, tips and tricks, and information about how successful bandsters went about losing the weight. Overall, I'd probably say to get the book if you're new to gastric banding, otherwise you'll probably already know all the information contained in this book.
