HTML:<b>"In this bold new book, Tovar eviscerates diet culture, proclaims the joyous possibilities of fatness, and shows us that liberation is possible." —Sarai Walker, author of Dietland</b><br /> Growing up as a fat girl, Virgie Tovar believed that her body was something to be fixed. But after two decades of dieting and constant guilt, she was over it—and gave herself the freedom to trust her own body again.<br /> Ever since, she's been helping others to do the same. Tovar is hungry for a world where bodies are valued equally, food is free from moral judgment, and you can jiggle through life with respect. In concise and candid language, she delves into unlearning fatphobia, dismantling sexist notions of fashion, and how to reject diet culture's greatest lie: that fat people need to wait before beginning their best lives.<br /> <b>"This book feels like spending a margarita-soaked day at the beach with your smartest friend. Virgie Tovar shares juicy secrets and makes revolutionary ideas viscerally accessible. You'll be left enlightened, inspired, happier, and possibly angrier than when you started." —</b><b>Joy Nash, actress</b><br /> <b>"Tovar is a vital voice in contemporary activism, media, and feminism. The joy she takes in her own body and life, combined with the righteous anger she expresses at an oppressive world is a truly radical act. She is deeply thoughtful, but does not equivocate. She confronts bigotry, but does not engage with bullshit." —</b><b>Kelsey Miller, author of</b> <b>Big Girl</b><br /> <b>"Long-time body positive writer, speaker and activist Virgie Tovar is gifting brown round girls the book we've been hungry for." —Mitú</b>.
