I really thought this story was going to be another yarn about a quest to lose weight, but this was really so much more than that. Megan is a great character who you really want to root for because she's so much stronger than she knows. The author did a great job of fleshing out the characters and their stories without overloading the reader with unnecessary details. Sam, Carmen and Lydia all felt like real people that you could roll your eyes at (Sam), laugh with (Carmen) and want to strangle (Lydia and Angela). It's a great story of struggle and achievement without going overboard.
