Cross! Ridiculous book
It was indeed! Not a particularly good book but readable until I got to the 14 stone weight bit! One stone being 14 lbs. Or did they change it already in th US version?

OMG!!! I read that book years ago. I didn't think anyone else on earth read that book.. A fitness professional friend of mine picked it up in the airport and gave it to me when she finished it.
I didn't question the starting weight because I know that parts of society dictates that in your twenties anything above 110 is teetering on obese. (SMH) Just like the fashion magazine colunmist that recently had to appologize for her remarks about the obese couple on the sitcom. SMH..
Getting back to the book- In our discussion after reading that book my question was: Are there any real human guys like the guy in the gym that are physically fit, handsome, charming, EMPLOYED, etc. that are attracted to obese women? I know there are all types of fetish and the point made in the book was that it would not be socially acceptable. I have just found that guys that are physically fit want perfection in their women. Even the beer gut, bbq rib snarfing, "can I have your chicken skin" kinda guys wants that. I've met some big girl lovin' guys in my life but none of them were health concious. The ones that I met that were, wanted to use the women for their money.
