Life Doesn't Begin 5 Pounds from Now

How do you feel about your body? Do you find yourself saying that you “feel fat?” It’s alarming how many women and girls (and yes, boys and men too) do.

If you or someone you know is struggling with body image issues, Life Doesn’t Begin 5 Pounds from Now by Jessica Weiner is a must-read. Weiner has written several books on the subject, and she’s currently traveling with the Dove Self-Esteem Fund tour, speaking to young girls about self-esteem. Life Doesn’t Begin 5 Pounds from Now is all about changing the thoughts and language that contribute to poor body image. It’s a fun and engaging read, full of anecdotes from real girls and women and quizzes to help us uncover the areas we need to work on.
