Lessons from the Fat-O-Sphere: Quit Dieting and Declare a Truce with Your Body by Kate Harding, Marianne Kirby

4.0

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 not 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.
