review 1: As cheesy as it sounds, Kate Harding's blog "Shapely Prose" changed my life. Anyone who knows me would vouch that I'm not a New Agey, optimistic sort of person, but there is a certain wisdom in being kind to yourself and knowing what your body wants. This book is pretty much just a condensed version of all the great stuff that's online, and you guys, it all makes so. much. sense. So, I highly recommend checking out one or both. This book doesn't have that much new information if you're familiar with the website, but it is nicely laid out and I love their straight-talk.
review 2: As someone who has been talking the body acceptance talk for her entire adult life (even if it's been much harder to also walk the walk), the information presented in this book was ... morenot new to me, but it was very, very affirming to read it and be reminded, especially as I have recently decided to finally and truly walk the walk and work on loving and accepting myself just as I am. I wish every woman I know, fat or not, would read this book and consider how much nicer life would be if they spent all the energy they spend hating their bodies on making peace with them instead. The work is just as hard, but man it feels so much nicer. less
