Good Enough to Eat by Stacey Ballis
4.0
Wow! Knowing that Stacey Ballis is BFF's with Jen Lancaster, I expected a similar style of writing. Far from it and the two can not be compared. (I love you both!)
Now that that is out of the way...I really, really loved this book! I am that fat girl trying to get healthy (again) and though I am confident my marriage will survive my weight loss (I was thin when we first met), the self-reflection and association with food habits was spot on for me! Melanie is an upbeat, positive energy person that inspires those around her. She learns that the past is the past and sometimes it should be left there and not dwelled on.
Good Enough to Eat is refreshing (pun intended) and tackles the obesity issue straight on, yet with a sensitivity to not make it a debilitating disability.
Thank you Stacey! This book is an inspiration to me. Though it is a work of fiction, it's not science fiction! I'm re-energized for my own health journey and can't wait to try the recipes!
