The Emotional First + Aid Kit—A Practical Guide to Life After Bariatric Surgery
Synopsis: This book’s purpose is to help all those wishing to change their lives through bariatric/gastric bypass surgery. As a psychologist, Dr. Alexander has seen hundreds of people both before and after surgery and has witnessed firsthand their problems and trials, as well as their successes. In this book, Dr. Alexander discusses many of the difficulties a bariatric patient is likely to encounter and some realistic and practical strategies for dealing with them. Most people go into bariatric surgery full of motivation and hope, only to find day-to-day postoperative existence more stressful than they imagined. Here are the psychological tricks of the trade to help make your own journey a successful one.
