I just got done reading Skinny Bitch.
Uh-Mazing.
I totally recommended it to anyone and everyone!
(DietLexy recommended it to me! Thank you Lex!)
It really gives it to ya and reads in a no nonsense sort of way like a friend (albeit an outspoken one!) is talking to you. They give you the facts (and site their sources). Very informative.
It certainly has changed the perspective that I have on food both specifically and generally. And really has me weighing my "vices" and Skinny Bitch aspirations on a balancing scale. My vices as I see them really aren't that bad. They are mostly certainly not good for my body but then they aren't exactly on a one-way train to Fatlanta.
(I'm lookin' at you Coffee.)
But, in general-YES and YES!
I checked it out from the library (as well as the audiobook so I can download and listen to anytime) and after reading the book I even want to buy it! Hello AMAZON!
(Shut up Budget! You killjoy.)
In all seriousness though. Pick up a copy or even listen to the audiobook, I know it won't be for everybody but it will give you very useful information that you can apply to your everyday life (Knowledge is Power y'all!!) and it's presented in a way that's not all super complicated that you need a dictionary, medical dictionary and science textbook on stand-by. Just regular plain english.
And some profanity-to add a little zest to keep you on your tootsies!
I bought the book via WalMart :) like 8 months ago. It's awesome. Yes, I love their profanity. LOL. Coffee, as one cup, by itself everyday, is not harmful to you, and is actually being proven to help women's function. Now, lots of amounts, bad. One cup good. :) I can't believe you just read it man! If you like that, you might like Master Your Metabolism by Jillian Michaels. You may need google.com on standby for some of the terms :P
ReplyDeleteI'm always up for a good read, and this sounds great. I'm definately gonna check it out. Thanks!

I went to the bookstore yesterday, and when they didn't have wasted in stock, I realised I had no other books to lean back on.
ReplyDeleteI think I'll go back this week and look for Skinny Bitch. Sounds good.
Do tell me if you have any other books to recommend.
Much love.
