“Another in-your-face title is ANGRY FAT GIRLS: 5 Women, 500 Pounds, and a Year of Losing It…Again by Frances Kuffel. Kuffel wrote Passing for Thin, a memoir about a midlife weight loss of 188 pounds, only to begin regaining the weight before the book was even published. Angry Fat Girls grew out a blog she wrote with four other women in the same situation. The title may be sassy, and Kuffel does have a witty way with words, but the text itself is moving and honest.”

“ANGRY FAT GIRLS: 5 Women, 500 Pounds and a Year of Losing It…Again is a funny, painfully honest memoir about these five women as they diet and eat, lose and gain, and struggle to find their individual definition of freedom along the way…Frances, Lindsay, Katie, Mimi, and Wendy dub themselves the Angry Fat Girlz and ask themselves — and each other — the difficult questions: Who am I inside all this weight? How much am I allowed to enjoy myself, and how much do I have to deny myself? What could I do if I was thin? In ANGRY FAT GIRLS, Frances Kuffel shares their story and the struggle to find their best selves along the way…This is the book for anyone who has ever lost it…only to gain back it again.”
