Product Description:

A NOTE FROM JEN LANCASTER:

'To whom the fat rolls…I'm tired of books where a self-loathing heroine is teased to the point where she starves herself skinny in hopes of a fabulous new life. 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?'

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Hysterically funny!
DO NOT READ THIS BOOK WITH A FULL BLADDER--you will pee yourself laughing!
Check-out her other books as well--great stuff!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - 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 . . . you.

Between "magically porktastic!" bites of food, Jen decides to try to lose 50 pounds, believing she'll be rewarded with facials and trips to Vegas or Italy to mark her progress. Regardless of her quest, her personality or yes, her narcissism, Jen Lancaster can WRITE. I went through so many pages before I realized I was almost completely finished with the book. It's a writing style I enjoy and admire, ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - 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 the same manner she lives her life: on her own terms, and in her own style. Don't make the mistake of lumping Lancaster into some nondescript category such as "chick lit"--while this writer has a gift for detailing moments with sidesplitting humor, she is also able to touch readers' hearts with her self-effacing candor and genuine voice. Entertainment with actual substance--Jen Lancaster crafts some of the best reading ... Read More
