I want my money back

He is a surgeon, not a nutritionist, yet the majority of this book is his attempt to teach the reader how to eat healthy, shop, and cook meals. Major fail. He comes across as painfully condescending and uses the book as a personal soapbox for his views on organic food, dairy, artificial sweeteners, etc... yet, none of it is backed up with scientific evidence. And if that isn’t bad enough, then you have to listen to endless self-indulgent self-congratulatory anecdotes about his child and parenting. Not to mention how his “advice” contradicts almost everything every other WLS clinic recommends. I will stick with my WLS nutritionist’s advice, thanks.
