"You Just Need to Lose Weight" and 19 Other Myths About Fat People--#90 finished

That is probably the longest book title I have typed on my title line.  I ordered this book as part of a Wishlist Multipies list on PBS--where you order usually at least 2 or 3 books that others have on their WL and maybe ones you have.  This is a way to save mailing cost by mailing 3 books for 3 credits in one mailing instead of 3 separate mailings.  I usually look there when my credits pile up or if nothing is going on as far as requests or ones to mail.  Anyway this is one that looking at title I thought might be a kind of comedy take on people harassing fat people, instead it is more of a you need to treat us better kind of read.  A lot of good information about fat people and how it is not simple to just lose weight and how often diets just make things worse once off the diet.  Good information about just respecting people and not attacking them.  I am overweight, maybe obese by BMI but book also points out how basically useless the BMI rating is too.  It does seem like parts of the book are just kind of repeated but still a worthwhile read.

There are 6 WL for this book on PBS and since my credits are now under 10 finally, I will go ahead and post this book to mail out.
