I picked this book up and did not put it down until I turned the last page. If you are overweight, you will relate. If you are unhealthy (but not willing to admit it out loud), you will relate. However, if you are thin, and don't understand the overweight population, you need to read this book, so you can relate. This book left me feeling; if he can do it, I can do it. This book also provides great insight to the inner workings of our bodies and what we need to achieve balance both physically and mentally. Thank you for sharing your story.

I ordered this book and it got to me friday afternoon, I can't tell you how long it has been scince I have not been able to put a book down, I read this one cover to cover. Keith touches many parts of living life as a fat person and how it feels. I connected with all of his thoughts, I have make many attempt to loose weight I have lost as much as 80lbs three thimes in my life and put it all back on and then some, while reading this book I knew my conviction to get to a new me was renewed. I think about my behavior all the time , not as a puinishment but a challenge and one I will win , thanks to Keiths help!,, the book has in it what you need as far as motovation, and simple facts that lead to success, eat right move more, and before starting consult your doctor, my first goal as the wiegh goes will be to get off blood pressure meds!,
