A Great Weight Loss Read

[kayeandjim00]

A few weeks ago I finished up reading The Weight Loss Diaries by Courtney Rubin and just wanted to share with my fellow WISHers how great it was. If you read Shape magazine you may have seen their continuing monthly feature of someone losing weight. I think the lastest person has been doing it about 9 months now. Courtney was the first profile they did and she continued as the feature for 2 years. Her struggle to lose weight is so real to me and to so many of you I'm sure. Amplified by the fact that she would be pictured monthly in a magazine and having thousands judge her slip ups she managed to find happiness with herself and the book really made me smile at times and sometimes want to give her a call and say "I know just how you feel when that happens." I haven't read any weight loss books quite like this - it's sort of Bridget Jone's Diary meets a weight loss plan. So that's my little book review if you have any questions let me know but I would highly suggest it as a great, easy read.

Thanks for posting this. I'm going to look for this at the bookstore when I do my mall walk today!

I used to love to read those "I Did It!" stories in Shape magazine. Very inspiring to read about other people succeeding.

Sounds like a good read ~ Will need to check out Amazon.
