Story
As the parent of two sons who went on to play baseball in college as well as a former head baseball coach at the NCAA level, I want to share alternatives with parents that will allow their children to avoid the anxiety and stress that many face within the overstructured and overorganized world of travel baseball. The hamster wheel of travel ball is a business model and not a baseball development model. For kids, baseball should be all about one thing—having fun! We play it as kids, watch and listen to it as adults, and pass down our love of it through generations.

Listen before you make any decisions!
I gifted this to my friend that has been talking about Bariatric surgery for a few months now but I have been skeptical about the idea. This audiobook has been a beacon of knowledge for both of us. There are so many things you need to consider and it has really opened our eyes. I love the chapter with The 4 steps to lasting success but the whole book is well worth a listen if you are even considering going down this root. Well written and narrated too.

I live a healthy lifestyle and generally make good decisions on maintaining a healthy diet, but I was surprised to learn so many new facts and takeaways from this book, making this a more than worthwhile read for someone in my position. From eating psychology, to a in-depth look into diet and macronutrients, this book is full of education and enough knowledge to help transform your health if applied. My favourite quote “shifting your diet is better than dieting”. Highly recommended for anyone looking to lose weight and create healthier eating habits.

I love the thought of holistic weight loss!
I always believe in a holistic way in anything. Unless it is a risk to your health, then you need surgery. But why wait too long to do it until it is too late. Sometimes, people regain weight after surgery also. So it is not always the best solution. However, I like this book because it gives so many resources and information that you can learn and find ways to lose weight naturally instead of surgery.

Informative
This book is an eye opener. I recommend it for anyone considering Bariatric surgery or not. It explains the importance of reading labels to see what exactly you are putting in your mouth that can be sabotaging your weight loss journey and importance of vitamins that one should be taking. It explains the difference of the sugars that are available in the market today. Overall we have to have an open mind and surround ourselves with people who can support us in our commitment to achieve and maintain this new lifestyle. I highly recommend this book. The author explains the types of surgeries and their possible complications associated with each, the pros and cons and what to look for. The author didn’t leave no page unturned when writing this book. Glad I had the opportunity to read it and now have this knowledge that I will put to good use.

An Amazing book for before or AFTER surgery!
I have struggled with my weight for my entire life. About 7 years ago I had Gastric Sleeve Surgery and my life changed nearly overnight! I went from 320 pounds to 150 in what seemed like the blink of an eye. I knew that surgery wasn’t a cure, and I have seen firsthand friends and family who lost a lot of weight after surgery only to gain it all back and more within a couple of years. I was determined to make sure that did NOT happen to me! I had done quite well for the first several years, I was able to maintain myself between 160 to 170 pounds without too much effort, but then… 2020. Need I say more? Less activity, stress, and an overall lack of “give-a-darn” lead to my straying from the path I have so carefully traveled. I found myself tipping the scales at more than 200 pounds for the first time in many years. I finally came to my senses and decided I HAD to do something. Continuing to gain weight was NOT an option. I found this book almost by accident, and something about it called to me. I am SO glad I found it! I can tell that this book has changed my life almost as much as the original surgery did! I am now in the right frame of mind and with the tips in this book I have brought myself back to the happy side of 200 and I am well on my way to finding my goal once again! I would recommend this book to anyone who is thinking of surgery, but also to those like me who have had the surgery and need help keeping a healthy lifestyle.

Candid and Informative!
The audiobook is clear, making is easy to follow. It is informative and will help guide anyone seeking to have a healthy life as it provides tips and practical relatable approach to adopt. The one habit that needs to change was most helpful as most weight loss programmes do work only for a while with me and I had return back to my old size but a determination to remain healthy is most essential.

Perfect approachable resource
Just what I was looking for.
Covered everything I wondered about but was too afraid to ask.
Included pre- and post-surgery tips, and I feel ready to make a decision now.
Very well researched, I would recommend this for anyone considering a bariatric procedure

Excellent Resource
This book is genuine and relatable. It is not only helpful to those who have had bariatric surgery, but a great resource for family and friends who support those who have had bariatric surgery. Even if you haven't had bariatric surgery, this book is a great tool for anyone who voices negative self-talk, emotional eating, etc. S. Y. Dou not only provides her professional knowledge, but offers some of her personal struggles. Again, genuine and relatable!

Life-changing!
If you are planning to have bariatric surgery or have never heard about it before, this book will provide you with everything you would very want to need to know. I love how it gives you the science and benefits but also discusses your mindset and how to manage the stress involved. This book will genuinely answer all the questions you have and more. The narrator also has a great voice and excellent pacing.
