FAT GIRL WALKING: Sex, Food, Love, and Being Comfortable in Your Skin…Every Inch of It

Brittany Gibbons’ is a popular blogger and in her memoir, FAT GIRL WALKING: Sex, Food, Love, and Being Comfortable in Your Skin…Every Inch of It (Dey Street Books, May 19, 2015), she discusses the often funny and often painful true stories of her life as an overweight girl growing up in the Midwest. {Book provided for review/feature consideration}

From coping with mental illness and obesity in her family, to her struggles with dating (it’s hard—no matter your size!), dealing with anxiety issues that forced her to drop out of college, falling in love, getting married, having three children, battling with bulimia, launching a successful writing career, and to finally getting the confidence to say goodbye to diets and body hating for good, Brittany’s new memoir is a soul-baring account of her quest to learn to love her shape.
