review 1: I really loved this book. I had a little trouble getting into it at first, but I think that was mostly because it's so different to most books that I've read recently. Also, the reviews I had read about it didn't, in my opinion, really give the book justice so I was going into it with low expectations. Once I got into it, I couldn't put it down. I found any reason or excuse to read it. I felt I had a lot in common with the main character, as far as weight loss and happiness were concerned, and this book actually motivated to do more for myself to be happier with myself.
review 2: I really enjoyed this story of a big black southern Momma who decides to lose weight and in doing so runs against the Big is Beautiful tradition. Pastor's wife, Ada loses her weight an
... mored regains her life as she tries to decide between her first love and her husband. I love how she records her feelings and the way she loses weight... good tips to follow! but how the book covers so much more than just the weight. I found the characters sympathetic and I identified with Ada as a person. I'd like to meet her in real life, I think she'd make a good friend. less

I thought this was one of the most boring books I have ever read, it had so much lost potential.
