Wish I got this soon.

This should be a standardised text and should be automatically sent when the decision has been made to have the surgery.
I had lots of contact with my dietian but I feel like they weren’t giving the answers I was looking for. This was the answer to a lot of my questions. Touching on nearly every facet of getting to, during and post gastric surgery experience.

Comprehensive book, wished bought prior to surgery

It was an easy read and helps me get a holistic picture of what to expect ahead on post-surgery journey. It would have been ideal to have read the first couple of chapters before surgery to understand the full journey.
