This author is the star of a TLC reality TV show that I have never watched so I went into this book fairly clueless. This is basically a memoir of her struggle with weight loss, how she resolved issues with body image and her diagnosis of PCOS. What she does well is describe the claustrophobia of living your life solely to lose weight. I found it anxiety inducing just reading about how she exercised three hours a day and ate next to nothing for months while losing minimum weight and it was a relief when she decided to give up that lifestyle. I do assume that her personality and positive attitude comes out more on TV than it does in written form because it felt flat at times but overall it was an enjoyable read. Received through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
