This book is a little GEM! Going to follow her practical and straight forward suggestions right away.In my 50 years I have been a chubby teen, a slim Model, and a yo-yo dieter adult who despite exceptional career achievements, still had to 'be slim' to feel good about myself.  Then I lost the war with thyroid problems over a decade ago, and just have never been able to feel as confident again as I used to. Image and appearance matter to me, and I feel like I failed something very fundamental in life.It has definitely affected the quality of my life, and has been detrimental to getting any real pleasure in my achievements over the past few years, and lowering my expectations of what I anticipate from the future.There are definite step-by-step strategies to follow in this book to boost your self image and confidence, no fluff here.  Written in doable chunks and not overwhelming. A very straight-forward how to improve your confidence guide with self help exercises and sensible strategies that everyone can follow, not just plus-sized people.I'm a self help buff from way back, and I can tell immediately from reading this book that if I follow these steps they are effective enough to help turn me around from being the Plus Sized hermit that I have become. I just needed someone to hold my hand at this particular instant in time and take the journey with me for the first few steps - Thanks Jeni!Haven't dated for 12 years, so was intrigued to read that the next book coming in the series will be about plus sized dating!
