resources for patients

[Alexis Conason]

I'm wondering if anyone has any resources (articles, book chapters, first person accounts, blog posts, etc…) that you reccomend for post-WLS patients on any of the following topics: 

-body image (adjusting to changes in body post-WLS, losing "fat woman" identity, changes in the ways that people react to you after weight-loss, hanging skin, or any other element of body image post-WLS)

-relationships (helping loved ones understand your struggle with food/WLS process, entering into new relationships post-WLS, how to eat and interact with people who don't know you've had WLS)  

-Emotional eating

My post-WLS group has decided that they want topics and readings for each monthly session, so I'm trying to pull together some appropriate materials. The group is all high-functioning, educated (all have completed college, some have post-graduate degrees as well) women. Any suggestions would be appreciated! Thanks!

My book addresses all of these topics! It is available through my website, Amazon and is now in eBook format.
