If you have ever been overweight, you can relate to this book. 7 women, desperate to lose weight, go to a residential month-long program. The techniques used at this program include starvation, brutal exercise, humiliation and belittling. And to top it all off, they are being filmed for a documentary. 2 of the ladies are the main characters, Alice and Daphne. Alice struggles in her marriage. Alice and her husband are as different as night and day and up until now, he has been unwilling to compromise on anything. It’s all about him- one of those types! I love the way the author had these characters repair their marriage. Very well done. Daphne is surrounded by family that love her unconditionally. But, she doesn’t love herself. Again, her metamorphosis is very well written. What these ladies do to expose this program is remarkable. This book is inspirational.
* I received a complimentary book from the publisher in exchange for an honest review.
