This was so sad and depressing. Whatever the opposite of body positive is, this book is it. I just can‘t imagine thinking THIS much about food and weight and wasting this much time on sucking every bit of joy out of eating. Like twenty pages of this is just lists of food and calorie counts. Just awful.

This is one of my favorite graphic novel memoirs. It chronicles Carol Lay's (a cartoonist) weight struggle from a very young age. I found it very encouraging! I like reading people's success stories in any area, and about how they overcame obstacles. #recommendsday #graphicnovel
