Description

A searingly honest, personal account of the living hell of being very, very fat. New Zealand children's writer and teacher Tania Roxborogh has had a weight problem since late teens and in this book she talks about the factors in her life which made her obsessed with food, the despair of yet another failed diet and the humiliating behaviours that result from being fat. Tania eventually resorts to stomach stapling surgery to control her weight and since then has dropped over 50 kg of weight. In doing so she has transformed not only her own life, but those of her husband and two daughters.

Fat, Like Me exposes the inner hell of being obese - a story that will shock and inspire you.
