Half-Assed


I just started reading this book. I read about it in my Women's Health magazine and thought it sounded interesting. I started it last night while I was waiting for Josh to get out of the shower. I only got to page 12, but I love it already. This girl is such an awesome writer I can't wait to read the rest. She also has a blog: Pasta Queen

Here is the summary from Barnes&Noble.com:

After undergoing gall bladder surgery at age twenty-three, Jennette Fulda decided it was time to lose some weight. Actually, more like half her weight. At the time, Jennette weighed 372 pounds.
Jennette was not born fat. But, by fifth grade, her response to a school questionnaire asking “what would you change about your appearance” was “I would be thinner.” Sound familiar?
Half-Assed is the captivating and incredibly honest story of Jennette’s journey to get in shape, lose weight, and change her life. From the beginning—dusting off her never-used treadmill and steering clear of the donut shop—to the end with her goal weight in sight, Jennette wows readers with her determined persistence to shed pounds and the ability to maintain her ever-present sense of self.

I'll let you know how it is once I'm finished with it, but I know it's going to be good, and most likely motivational.
