Mrs D is Not on a Diet

Would you start another diet if you knew it would probably fail? Would you love your body if our culture didn't tell you it was wrong?

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Mrs D is Not on a Diet by Lotta Dann explores her journey with extreme dieting and drastic weight loss, which led to endless praise for her skinny body. But no one knew what she had to do to maintain it.

When the weight came back on, Lotta started asking fundamental questions that she'd never considered before.

Why do we believe that to be healthy you must be skinny? Why do we think any measure of fat on our body is bad? Why do so many of us hate our bodies? And why do we spend so much time, money, and energy trying to shrink ourselves?

The answers surprised her, angered her, and ultimately empowered her. She thinks they will do the same for you.
