Fatty Fatty Boom Boom: A Memoir of Food, Fat, and Family by Rabia Chaudry

1.5

Riddled with implicit and explicit fatphobia. The entire book details her journey with intentional weight loss. She only ever accepts herself and body once she loses weight. After getting to her “goal weight” she says  “my body was waiting for me to treat it with patience, attention, and kindness” as if that’s impossible in a larger body. Would not recommend to anyone who is on a self love or body neutrality journey. Wish I would have just stopped reading once I started getting red flags.
