skinny bitch


so i've been hearing all the buzz about this book "skinny bitch" and how it changes lives, it slightly sparked my interest. then one day when i was at the nail salon at the drying station, i saw lea michele (from glee.. obsessed) on the cover of women's health mag, so i flipped to her article and she name dropped "skinny bitch" and how it changed her life too. when i came back home, i bought the book for a summer read, not knowing i would have it read from cover to cover in 24 hours.

i've been a member of peta for a over a year now, but pretty much been a hypocrite since i ate meat but still believed in animal rights and routinely donated to the cause. after reading the book tho i put that belief into action. i haven't touched/eaten/craved meat or dairy since. keep in mind its been a week but its been real easy and i have every intention on continuing, besides i agreed to the "pledge to be veg" for 30 days petition on goveg.com.

but animal issues aside, the book discusses your health and what you think you know but really don't know about the food industry.. its all revealed. and the lades who wrote it have such a wise ass way of stating it in black and white. even if you choose to not believe it, it at least gets you thinking. the writers have also come out with a follow up book called "skinny bitch in the kitch," which is a book of "kick-ass recipes for hungry girls who what to stop cooking crap-and start looking hot." so if i come across any keepers, ill be postin them.

...if any part of this sparks your interest, i'd give it a go!
