Default Pre-Op reading suggestions?

Does anyone have a book they'd like to suggest to us preops to read? I have read Before & After by Susan Maria Leach and enjoyed it. I really like the recipe section in it too. I can't wait to make use of that.
So, any book that you found helpful?
TIA!

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.
