Resumen del Editor

Weight-loss surgery is stomach surgery, not brain surgery.

Did you know that 40 percent of bariatric surgery patients regain weight within five years of having weight-loss surgery? When it comes to long-term weight-loss surgery success, you've got to get a handle on your emotions and motivation. The food will always be there, and it's not about knowing what to eat, but instead about transforming your relationship with food. This is why conquering your mind-set is essential. If you are not in the right headspace, you can slide backward and enter the danger zone of regaining weight.

Unfortunately, the cravings, emotional impulses, and habits to eat whatever and whenever still pop up after surgery. Even with the knowledge of what to eat, you will also need to learn how to manage yourself and your mind-set around food. Fancy meal plans won't help you if you haven't tackled the most difficult part of having weight-loss surgery: your brain!

After investing so much time to get your body where you want it, is having the wrong mind-set worth the risk of sabotaging all you've worked hard to achieve?

In Bariatric Mindset Success, you will be guided by Kristin, a professional psychotherapist and a successful gastric sleeve post-op patient, through her most coveted weight-loss surgery success strategies. She'll guide you through the weight-loss surgery basics as well as advanced mind-set, motivation, and emotional techniques to help you stay focused and on track through the ups and downs of life. You'll gain practical tools and techniques to create lifestyle habits that keep you focused on weight-loss surgery success for life, not just in the short term. Also, she provides tools to handle friendships and relationships after weight-loss surgery in addition to giving you a compass for living your best life, beyond the weight loss.

Starting the Journey

Just had the surgery without all the prerequisites in the US before surgery, and I knew that I needed more than just an eating plan. This has been a great book to help me realize how to start my journey and battle my emotional eating.

best bariatric book

Having weight loss surgery is just the beginning. It addresses the physical but you have to address the mental in order for it to work. This book does a fantastic job of helping one address the mental/psychological aspects of weight loss.

great heads up and skulls for the right mindset

First book I actually finished. I found it very relatable. I will come back to it again.

good

loved all the information
think someone else should have read it....
pauses in the wrong spots

Good reminders and new tools for success.

This book has been a great asset in getting me back on track and digging deeper in the psychology aspects of my weight loss struggles after bariatric surgery. I look forward to reading it again and utilizing the tools given to help reach my own Bariatric surgery goals.

I’m not Alone

The author is very relatable and insightful. She gives real examples and shares her own personal struggles with her weight loss surgery. The book offers many tools to use to support the new you after the surgery.

***LIFE-CHANGER***

Amazing book, a true life-changing read! Kristin has the credentials, first-hand experience, and relatable knowledge! Surgery is no quick fix... yes, you can lose a lot of weight but surgery does not fix your brain's response to food, and the reasons that you gained weight in the first place. Sometimes post-op patients have the sensation of being STUCK between feeling physically full and mentally/emotionally left unsatisfied within a meal. This is a dark place to be.
This book gives you tools and techniques that dig deeper into the emotional side of your behaviors, and why you react instead of respond to life-stressors, addictions, and other emotionally tied interactions with life. Emotional/Mental health after surgery is very important to your bariatric success. If you are STUCK, this book addresses key points to get you out of old patterns and behaviors and onto a happy, joyous, and free new you!

Great content

The audiobook has great content and I will definitely use the content. However, the audio sound quality was off. You can hear background noise. Additionally, there is some weird editing cuts. The author states in the book to see the PDF attachments with the audiobook, but I received no PDF attachments. I really wanted the attachments.

Lastly, the table of contents shows chapter numbers but no description of the chapters.

A must to listen

I really loved it specifically the narrator voice that did not bored me at all kept me listening, a lot of great subjects that were brought up. Encouragement to succeed.

Great book with awesome narration!!!

incredibly helpful and informative book. I am almost a year postop and this book has provided great tips and tools to help me succeed on my weight loss journey.
the narrator was great. most of the audible stories seem to have not so great narrators. this narrator was very engaging and lively. I felt like she was just talking and not reading.
