Book excerpt: "The heart-wrenching story of how a misguided young girl's lack of self-worth, early exposure to sex and domestic violence led to an unhealthy relationship with food for comfort throughout her adult life. Theresa Lou Bowick was born and raised in poverty stricken neighborhoods in Rochester, New York. Known as "Fatty," she was taunted and teased during her elementary and high school years for being overweight. Unable to deviate from her upbringing, she raised her daughter to abuse food. Together they enjoyed foods that were smoked, fried and smothered in gravy, repeating the cycle of obesity. In search of love and acceptance, her life was turned upside down through a series of curves destined to destroy her. Born with a spirit of survival she was determined not to succumb to her circumstances, nonetheless, she would discover a path to healthy living." -- from back cover.
