Brian S. Mills had a problem with his weight. A college wrestler in his youth and the owner of a successful physical therapy company, Mills fully understood the dangers of obesity. Yet despite an athletic lifestyle, the pounds kept on accumulating. His weight was beginning to affect his health and his quality of life. Where other weight-loss methods failed, bariatric surgery allowed Mills to regain control of his weight. In A Lighter Me, Mills guides readers through the bariatric surgery process, from choosing the right doctor to the importance of postsurgical guidance and support. You'll learn what to expect during presurgical appointments, the different surgical options available to you, and how to prepare for and recover from the procedure. Equally important, Mills discusses the physical and psychological causes of weight gain, including yo-yo dieting and genetic predispositions. Careful preparation and postsurgical lifestyle changes are essential for positive bariatric surgery outcomes. A Lighter Me offers a valuable resource throughout the process, improving your chance of regaining a healthy weight and more enjoyable life.

For young men who want to become more like Christ, going through adolescence in this culture can be like crossing a minefield.

You can use this biblically based eight-week guide on your own or with a group of other guys who may be experiencing the same things you are, such as isolation, addiction, fear, and anger. Learn practical strategies to ground you in truth, grow your faith, and help you develop into a man who walks with God daily. Discussion and application questions are included each week for personal reflection and to help facilitate a group dialogue.
