Fat Chick (2009)
Trish Collins is an advertising account executive in a high-profile firm in New York. She has unsuccessfully dieted in the past and after she loses a promotion to a thinner, much less capable colleague, she once again commits to a diet. As she finally loses weight, she becomes obsessed with her thin body and her growing ego. Trish struggles through her fat and thin stages, to like what she sees in the mirror and to get to the root of her eating issues. This is a great debut novel that handles dieting, body image and love with wit and compassion. (AO)
