About this ebook

In this funny, poignant debut, a plus-size heroine becomes a reality TV show contestant and discovers she's already beautiful enough to be the next big thing.

Kat Larson figured she had nothing to lose by becoming a contestant on the new reality show From Fat to Fabulous-except maybe a few dozen pounds. Then she'd finally be able to arrange a face-to-face meeting with Nick, the British hunk she met online, who still thinks she's a size four. She'd finally be confident and graceful and thin-and there's that big cash prize, too, to pay for all those slinky new clothes she'd need. She'd finally have the perfect life.

I've read this book twice now. Once when I was 18 and over 300 lbs and this last time I'm 24 and 200 lbs. I lost my weight by blood sweat and a lot of tears. When I first read the book related so much with Kat about everything fat now this time I got upset a lot mostly due to her not working out more on the TV show. If you're going onto a TV show to lose weight your day should go eat, sleep, and work out. I feel if she would have thrown herself into and pushed herself it would have been better Decent ending
