I use this book to deal with the pain of my overeating.
I used to eat WAY too much. I would begin my day by eating bacon, sausage, a loaf of bread, and a gallon of milk with cream.
After reading this book I learned that my eating was a way to hide the shame of being born without my left eye, and that I dont have to feel bad about being a "pirate faced" person anymore. Thanks Amazon.com! Im a good pirate, and a good person, and I weigh only 375 lbs today!~

Powerful and overwhelming but true
This book really grabbed me. It was almost too much for me by the time I got done reading it. It will really give you a lot to think about and I recommend it to anyone out there who hates their body and is constantly dieting. If every woman read this book maybe we'd all stop putting ourselves down all the time.

Empowering
This book was full of great information and stories about how women have allowed society to dictate how they look and how they should feel about how they look. Though some of these stories about anorexics and bulimics felt a little out of place for me (someone who eats to cover up feelings), I gleaned something from every story told. This book is impowering in its message to get out there and seek your worth in more than your body image and to give yourself what you need to be successful.
