From the publisher

If you've ever struggled with your weight, if you've ever been told you have "such a pretty face," if you've ever felt like giving up--you're not alone...

Seven Women. One Goal. 350 Pounds to Go.

Meet the women...

Julie, Heather, Erin, Lori, Monique, Shauna, Robyn

...join these "Big Girls" as they chronicle their diet travails, struggling to lose pounds and find themselves. With each new story, you'll explore the underworld of weight gain, weight loss, and the truth behind the meaning of "goal weight." You'll find all the issues that Big Girls face in today's world in these funny, bittersweet, and true stories.

Author Erin J. Shea--creator of the immensely popular Lose the Buddha weight-loss blog--gives voice to the Big Girl in all of us. She's raw, real, and radically different--and will forever change the way you look at losing weight.
