Need Your Book Ideas!

[Alex Brecher 10,512]

I've released The BIG Book on the Gastric Sleeve and The BIG Book on the Lap-Band and releasing The BIG Book on the Gastric Bypass in a few weeks (a trilogy!)

I'm working on a fourth book targeted towards individuals that are post weight loss surgery.

Some of the topics I'm planning to include:

• patient stories
  
• patient tips
  
• recipes
  
• meal plans
  
• specific food tips
  
• famous people with WLS
  

Please let me know if there are other topics you think might interest individuals that are post weight loss surgery.

When and where can we buy the Gastric Bypass book?

* Complications?

* Exercise plans

* Plastic surgery

* Psych follow ups--- do or don't?

The changes in personal relationships, such as having a spouse that does not make life changes with you and how to psychologically overcome that negativity. Also that is important would be how to handle public situations and questions from people if you kept your surgery private.

I never tire of the stories, they keep me motivated. The negative stories are just as important as the positive ones. I think it's important to hear from people who have had complications and how they were dealt with, as it could happen to any one of us. Bad experiences brought on by poor choices are just as educational, too. All these things can help a person decide if weight loss surgery is right for them, and if it is, they know what to expect when things don't go as expected.

In all my research I had the hardest time finding veteran stories from people five or more years out. I wanted to know if they had continued success, health issues, unforseen problems, how they handled the life-style changes long-term, etc. Whether on not they'd do it again. Please include some of these stories in your book.

For my part, I would like to see a book made up ENTIRELY of personal stories, good and bad, inspiring and informative. Reading about other peoples experiences helped me to make an informative decision.

Something for family or friends to help them understand, also what they should expect in the weeks after months etc i wish I had a book for my husband to read when I was in surgery or as we talked about me doing this.
