I am so grateful for the wisdom and encouragement that Glenn gave to me. In the beginning I had researched Gastric bypass surgery myself but never was educated on all of the personal issues that we have to deal with. Glenn helped prepare me educationally, physically, and emotionally. Glenn did this by providing me with wonderful guidance and assurance. As sessions went on I felt as if I could tell Glenn anything and that he will always be a friend I can count on for support. Thank You Glenn for everything you have done and thank 7ou again for being courageous enough to share your gift with others. I couldn't have done it without you. - Melissa J.

Thank you so much for your honesty in the one subject that I don't seem to hear all about: the downside of WLS. You've addressed so many of my concerns about this procedure and I really appreciate your candor. Keep up the good work.
— Karen

No one has ever seemed as "real" as you do. I am one who wants to know the good with the bad. It helps us "newbies" so to hear true stories of the entirety of it all. Thank you again.
— K.

I want to say "thank you" in a big, big way. There needs to be more said about what to expect in the first six weeks after surgery. I think more people need to be more honest so the new surgery patients can prepare themselves a little bit better.

This is my first "trip" to your website, but believe me, not my last.  I found your newsletters to be not only informative, but up-lifting as well.  Even though I know I'm not the only one who's ever done this surgery, I do at times feel alone. I just love your pictures....you're amazing and a real inspiration to me!!!   Can't wait to read more newsletters.

Glenn, you are so much my hero! I've paid thousands of dollars in my life to get to the bottom of this same oral fixation, even became a psychotherapist myself to try to master the "issue" and still here we are . . . . Thanks for helping me deal with my “oral demons”.

Huge kudos to your website - just awesomely impressive, professional and user-friendly! 
-Sharon M.

 I appreciate your willingness to put in words what so many of us think in our minds - even unconsciously.

-Dolores

WOW, you are amazing!  What a touching experience for you to share with us.  To say I have given your last newsletter a lot of thought is insufficient.  It is as though you were in my head writing about the thoughts and feelings I've been having.  I am so grateful that you let us share in your experience.  Thank you for your honest sharing and inspiration. 
-Cathy

Well, as always - you are an inspiration. I can't tell you how much I appreciate you opening up yourself about your experience. It has certainly kept me focused and motivated. Glenn you and your site are some of the most useful things I found in helping me prepare for my new life. You are one of the few people who didn't just go on blathering about how great it is to have had the surgery - you gave some real and honest perspective. I'm so glad you are out there and I'm so glad I've found you. You're the coolest thing since sliced bread!!(that would be low fat, low carb bread-of course).
-Christina

I had been looking through the hundreds of sites concerning WLS, getting more and more frightened and confused when I found

you!  As I read what you had written about your own surgery, tears are coming to my eyes.  This is the first time I feel someone really knows what I am feeling as I prepare for my own surgery.
