Free Copy of Alex Brecher's "Big Book of Gastric Bypass" on Audible.com



Recommended Posts

When I began to research weight loss surgery a year ago, I bought four books. The best one by far was "The Big Book of the Gastric Bypass" by Alex Brecher. I was impressed with the way that it presented the whole picture: all the alternatives for dealing with obesity, and what can be expected from each one. Rather than trying to sell you on bypass, the book gives you the facts you need to decide whether or not the bypass is right for you. If you decide that it isn't, the first five chapters of the book are worth the price of the whole thing. If you go for the bypass, the rest of the book tells you exactly what the experience will be like. No sugarcoating, no axes ground, just what you need to know to make the bypass work for you.

I got the bypass last September and am down 70 pounds. I have had so few complications, I don't even know what most of them feel like. Adapting to the new lifestyle has been almost shockingly easy for me. I credit this to three things: my intelligent and understaning wife, my excellent surgeon, and Alex's book.

I've been narrating audiobooks for a few years now, and will soon finish up my 20th title for Audible.com. When I got back into it after my surgery, I was thrilled to discover that Alex had put "The Big Book of the Gastric Bypass" up for narration. I nailed the audition, and I'm quite proud of the result. Alex must have liked it too, because I'm currently working on "The Big Book of the Lap Band." It was a real pleasure to do these books that I admire and respect, and I hope that the chance to listen to them will help a lot of people be as successful with weight loss as I have been.

So, Audible has given me some free coupon codes to promote the audiobook version of "The Big Book of the Gastric Bypass." I would be delighted to share them with folks here on BariatricPal. First come, first served, of course. If you would like a free copy of the audiobook, please drop me an email at dad@pratt-hobbies.com and I'll send you the instructions. You do not have to subscribe to Audible.com to get the free book, and if you have an Audible subscription you can use the coupon code to get the book without affecting your monthly points. If you decide to subscribe to Audible and pick one of my narrations as your free first book, the author and I get a nice little royalty bump. Email me if you have any questions. I also have some coupon codes left from some of my earlier Audible releases, including "Titan II, A History of the Cold War Missile Program," "Unhinged" by Michelle Malkin, "The Virginia Handbook" travel guide, and "All Ears," a wonderful collection of small-town newspaper columns from upstate New York.

Thanks for listening.
