Secrets of a Former Fat Girl by Lisa Delaney; Hudson Street Press
You can go from flabby to fab and Secrets of a Former Fat Girl proves it. In this funny weight loss memoir Delaney shares how she lost 70 pounds…and kept it off…without going low-carb, downing shakes for half the day or enduring a flavorless existence. And, before you get offended, the term “Fat Girl” has nothing to do with the number on the scale; it’s about the mindset of the girl. While Delaney’s end results (a size-two figure and medals from 10 different marathons) don’t exactly seem attainable for all of us, her humor and vivid been-there advice concerning both the body and the mind will inspire you to stop hiding behind whatever your “Fat Girl Clothes” may be. *** * *
