Book synopsis

Morbid obesity, defined as the point at which a person's weight reaches life-threatening levels, is becoming more and more common. This book asks what it feels like to undergo the effective treatment of gastric surgery, and to adjust to living in a smaller, new body? The author outlines the practicalities considering, undergoing and recovering from gastric surgery. Her account should enable families and friends of sufferers to understand the problem better and allow people who are seriously overweight to realise they are not alone. Interwoven with the stories of people who have undergone the surgery, it is also a guide for health and social care professionals working with this group of clients.
