Summary of Kelsey Miller's Big Girl

By IRB Media

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 I was done with dieting, and I was done with being the fat girl. I was finally happy and healthy, except for the fact that I was still fat. I wanted this issue resolved so I could move on and live my life.

#2 I knew that asking for help wasn’t my favorite thing, but I knew from experience that it worked. I decided to find a food shrink of sorts, an intuitive eating coach. I would be accountable to someone else.

#3 I decided to find a trainer and a columnist. I wanted to chronicle the journey publicly, and not just because I knew there would be others who could relate to being trapped in their own bodies, waiting for life to begin thirty pounds from now.

#4 I was a writer and a show-off, and I knew that I was not perfect. But I also knew that I was not alone, and that I could be honest with and accountable to others.
