This book is absolutely fantastic. It really changed my perspective on my own self worth, the role of weight in health (spoiler: it's really not that important). I highly recommend any of Lindo Bacon's books to anyone.

Revolutionary approach to managing your health. This book really opens your eyes and I urge everyone to read it. Let go of the guilt, the shame, the restrictions, the self-loathing. Learn how to take care of yourself in a healthy way. This is not a diet book and it's not a self-help book. It's the truth about weight. Everyone should read this book.
