From the Introduction
Morbid obesity carries a weight that extends well beyond the physical — the medical appointments, the furniture that doesn't fit, the stares, the years of advice from people who have never needed to take it. The writers here understand that weight, and they do not minimize it.

A note before you read

This book is a collection of personal, first-person testimonials offered as companion reading. It is not medical advice. Always consult a qualified healthcare provider regarding any medical condition or decision.

About this volume

Inside this volume

Fifty people tell the story of their experience: what preceded it, what made change feel possible or impossible, the interventions they tried — dietary, surgical, behavioral — the setbacks, and what their lives look like now. The range of outcomes is real; so is the range of paths taken to get there.

Who it's for

For those living with morbid obesity, the caregivers beside them, and families who want to support without yet knowing how.
