From Shape magazine's popular "Weight-Loss Diary" columnist comes a hilarious, sometimes heartwrenching look at the daily struggle of dieting

In this frank and funny book, Courtney Rubin shares what she learned about dieting—and herself—in more than two years of chronicling her battle to keep food from consuming her life. As engaging as her famous column, The Weight-Loss Diaries is part memoir, part how-to, and always entertaining.

With insight, humor, and courage, Rubin explores diet and food issues, as well as her self-sabotaging habits during dieting, in ways that everyone struggling with weight loss will find both instructive and inspiring.

      Sounding vulnerable but far from defeated, reader Beth Richmond is wonderfully connected to this bittersweet and brutally honest memoir. It's the true story of a magazine writer's eating and weight struggles over two years, which she chronicled for a fitness magazine. A humble and authentic presentation, with no addiction pathos or mental health intellectualizations, the narrative deals sensitively with several common types of human frailty--stress eating, eating addiction, and body-image problems. Rubin's persistence will lift everyone who hears this audio and remind them they are not alone, not pariahs, and not to blame for their appetites and weight-loss screw-ups. T.W.
