Produktbeschreibung
Jennifer Joyner is slowly killing herself with food. She is powerless to stop. She weighs 336 pounds. She has uncontrolled diabetes and high blood pressure. She's lost jobs and friendships, and her marriage is hanging by a thread. She disgusts herself. She can't even attempt a sex life. She's never felt so desperate or alone. Designated Fat Girl is the painfully honest account of Joyner's most intimate experiences and private moments as an obese woman-of always searching for clothes that fit, pretending to order for two people at drive-through fast-food joints, the constant cycle of binge and regret, not fitting into her wedding dress, the cruel comments. It's a story about her decision to have gastric bypass surgery and the resulting complications. In the end, it is also a story of recovery and survival.
