And I hate the message that women can't possibly be happy until we all fit into our skinny jeans. I don't find these stories uplifting; they make me want to hug these women and take them out for fizzy champagne drinks and cheesecake and explain to them that until they figure out their insides, their outsides don't matter. Unfortunately, being overweight isn't simply a societal issue that can be fixed with a dose healthy of positive self-esteem. It’s a health matter, and here on the eve of my fortieth year, I've learned I have to make changes so I don't, you know, die. Because what good if finally being able to afford a pedicure if I lose a foot to adult onset diabetes?' Customer Reviews Average Rating: Rating: - Memoirs By Nature Are Narcissistic Think about it. You are the writer. The subject is you. The story is of your experiences based on the ideas generated by you. You have to spend a lot of time with yourself and like yourself enough to put it out there for the world to judge. And they DO judge! This first person account starts out with the in-your-face notion that she's a fat beyotch, a hearty eater (bring on the butter) and a mean girl to boot. Look out soccer moms and Stepford wives, this is the polar opposite of . ... Read More Rating: - Brilliant! Jen's Best Book To Date! For those who haven't ever read Jen Lancaster: #1--Stop waiting and buy one (actually you should probably buy all three) now. #2--Prepare to laugh your head off as Jen artfully and wittily recounts the events of her life. You will laugh, guffaw, nearly cry, and completely identify with her triumphs and tribulations portrayed in her charming, authentic voice. This is Lancaster's third memoir, and it is by far her best work to date. She is clearly a writer who crafts her work in ... Read More Rating: - Terrible! I ordered this book on July 29th and STILL HAVE NOT RECEIVED IT!!!!!!!!!! I notified them 2 weeks ago, and they said they would resend it and they haven't!!!!!!!!!!!! Rating: - Another great one! Jen Lancaster has done it again! This is another great book that I thoroughly enjoyed! I hope there is another one on the way! Rating: - BULLETIN: Jen Lancaster is an acquired taste Okay, people, if you didn't like Jen's previous books, why did you read this one and complain about it? Come on, you're wasting our time here. There aren't that many really funny women writers out there--and only another woman understands our problems--so don't be putting Jen down. I have to buy her books because every once in awhile I need reinforcement and running to the library to find one of hers doesn't work well since they're always in circulation. If you don't agree 100% with Jen's views, ...
