I am always looking for information on weight loss surgery.  Not only does the information serve as education about what's going on with my body, but it helps keep me motivated as well as constantly aware that I have to focus on lifestyle changes. 

Dr. Terry Simpson, is a lap-band surgeon, and has written several books that I have found helpful during my journey.  Even though I did not have the lap-band, I have found valuable information and help from reading the information he shares as a surgeon. 

• A Lighter Look ... At a Heavy Subject  by Terry Simpson, MD
• Losing The Last 30 lbs by Terry Simpson, MD
• Another book that I came across not long ago was : The LAP-BAND Solution--A Partnership for Weight Loss  by Paul O'Brien, MC, FRACS

I think that if I had the Lap-band this would be on the top of my list.  I haven't read it, but I did read an article in OH magazine that was written about the book and the author, Dr. Paul O'Brien, a surgeon and foremost expert on the LAP-BAND system.  He was involved in the design of the lap-band in the early 1990's and placed the first band in Australia in l994.  You can find his book on Amazon.com or visit www.obesityhelp.com/forums/lapband for more information and supportive resources.
