|a Taking the leap: deciding on surgery -- Responding to the kindness of strangers: now you don't see me, now you do -- Changing the dynamics in your inner circle: your change becomes everybody else's -- Deconstructing the self: who was I and who am I becoming? -- Facing the music of self: when weight is no longer the reason -- Greater than the weight of our parts: making sense of it all -- Through thick and thin: planning for success -- Concluding note: neither weight nor weight loss.

|a "Obesity Surgery is based on interviews with thirty-three gastric-bypass patients reflecting on life before and after surgery. Their accounts describe the frustrations of limited mobility and energy, as well as the sometimes heartbreaking isolation the seriously overweight endure in a society that views excess poundage as a character flaw. The changes these patients encountered as their weight dropped were sometimes exhilarating, sometimes bewildering. They had to deal with the varied reactions of family members and associates, complications of romance and dating, and a new self-image, and they had to confront the factors that made them obese in the first place, all the while following a severely restricted diet. And they often had to learn that some of the problems they had attributed to their obesity were still there after they lost weight."--Jacket.
