Skinny People Just Don't Get It

Written from the front lines in the war on obesity, Skinny People Just Don't Get It takes the knowledge gleaned from the management of successful weight loss surgery patients and allows the reader to use that knowledge to avoid the operating room.

Drawing from my experience as a bariatric surgeon, I give the reader a straightforward explanation of what drives our appetite and how to control the factors that make us feel so hungry all the time. Addressing the multiple causes of obesity head on, I offer practical solutions to the countless millions who struggle with their weight. These explanations and solutions are based on my experiences talking with, and having operated upon, over 4,000 people fighting this battle.

This informative self-help guide couldn't be more relevant to the health issues facing Americans today. Skinny people are becoming extinct. Approximately 100 million Americans are now considered obese, and almost one-third of those are morbidly obese. Most attempts at dieting will ultimately fail, but Skinny People Just Don't Get It sounds a message of hope. The book describes what really works in everyday life and provides an overall strategy on how to eat, one that can be immediately implemented and is effective for the long term.
