True account of a woman's struggle to lost weight. I loved this book, I could relate to so much! I also liked the ending-VERY true, candid, honest...I think she's done a sequel or update since this book? Not sure.

Good book. A little hard to get interested in a first, but it gets better as you go.

This is a tough review because I did enjoy reading the book, I could relate to some of it and I applaud the effort to write the diary etc, but it is not an effective tool to motivate weight loss, the writer has yo yoed so much that you have no idea what her weight is now and she has not gotten to her dream weight making it look as if it is as unattainable as she envisioned. I am not sure if it is worth reading, it is a good book but maybe it would have been better if it was fiction.

I really loved this book as I read this housewife's struggles in life. I was able to relate to a lot of her struggles. This helped me to understand myself with many of my same problems.
