Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: spoke to me for sure Comment: it was a great, fast read. I enjoyed it thoroughly and think that anyone who's struggled with weight and has a sense of humor about it. Customer Rating: Summary: Loved it! Comment: I loved this book. It is hilarious and I felt like I was reading a book about my life. Having just turned 40 and being an overweight, ex-sorority girl myself, I could totally relate to Jen's dieting struggles and so many other issues. I have read and thoroughly enjoyed Bitter and Bright Lights but this was even more entertaining! Fabulous beach read - cannot say enough about it - buy this book! Customer Rating: Summary: loved her other books Comment: I was disappointed. I really REALLY like her other books but this one just didn't do it for me. If you find this one just a little funny defiantly read her others they are great. Customer Rating: Summary: Hilarious Comment: For anyone who has ever dieted - this book will make you laugh out loud! Customer Rating: Summary: Get yourself a pair of DEPENDS! Comment: This book does NOT disappoint. If you are unfamiliar with Jen Lancaster's first two books, read them! If you have to read this one first, it's fine...it stands alone. You will smile, smurk, and laugh out loud! I recommend this book for beach reading, bed reading, bus reading, or "I am so po'd right now that I could bite a nail in two" reading. It is the story of "every woman's" journey to thinness......Enjoy! More Reviews
Editorial Reviews: A NOTE FROM JEN LANCASTER: "To whom the fat rolls…I'm tired of books where a self-loathing heroine is teased to the point where she starves herself skinny in hopes of a fabulous new life. And I hate the message that women can't possibly be happy until we all fit into our skinny jeans. I don't find these stories uplifting; they make me want to hug these women and take them out for fizzy champagne drinks and cheesecake and explain to them that until they figure out their insides, their outsides don't matter. Unfortunately, being overweight isn't simply a societal issue that can be fixed with a dose healthy of positive self-esteem. It’s a health matter, and here on the eve of my fortieth year, I've learned I have to make changes so I don't, you know, die. Because what good if finally being able to afford a pedicure if I lose a foot to adult onset diabetes?"
