This book was written by Dr. Michael Schneider who is a well-known bariatric surgeon. He has spent a lifetime helping people lose weight by surgical means. He also believes that people can control their weight by learning when they are full. The author does have a diet bar that helps people to feel full quicker and I expected that he would be promoting that. He didn't mention it at all which I felt was a good thing. I really didn't want a commercial. He gave many "tools" to help people lose weight. I was a little frustrated, though, because he kept saying that his way wasn't dieting, which it wasn't counting calories and such, but still most of the "tools" he advocated are touted by most diet books. Overall though, it was a reasonable approach to weight loss based on scientific studies.
