Confessions of a Reformed Dieter: How I Dropped Eight Dress Sizes and Took My Life Back Book

When AJ Rochester is singled out as the ideal candidate for a television show on obesity, she is at first appalled and then resolved. Enough is enough. She vows to lose 40 kilos -not because she yearns to become a pretzel, but so she can keep up with her little boy and turn her life around at last. But after years of trying and failing, AJ knows she needs a miracle to drop eight dress sizes so she volunteers to be a human guinea pig and record her weekly progress in front of a camera for a television program on body image.
