 | Secrets of a Former Fat Girl: How to Lose Two, Four (or More!) Dress Sizes--And Find Yourself Along the Way by Lisa Delaney
Buy new: $10.20 / Used from: $7.50 This is my number one favorite book. We big girls tend to hide behind our weight and use it as an excuse to keep from living life to the fullest and really going for what we want. A big part of shedding pounds is shedding the "fat girl mentality" that goes with it.

 | Neris and India's Idiot-Proof Diet: A Weight-Loss Plan for Real Women by Neris Thomas
Buy new: $16.49 / Used from: $2.92 This was the last book I purchased. The diet itself is high protein, low carb- a modified Atkins approach. The diet itself was very straightforward, but I really liked the way the authors tried to take a very personal interest in you through the pages of the book.

Buy new: $14.99 / Used from: $10.95 Brooke Castillo is a "weight loss coach"- similar to a life coach. I had a hard time reading her book straight through (some sections didn't really apply to me) but I enjoyed reading it from section to section. I really liked her approach to identifying mindless eating.
