Big Girl: How I Gave Up Dieting and Got a Life

Kelsey Miller struggled with her weight for her entire childhood and adolescence, enduring years of crash diets, fitness jags, and endless visits to nutritionists. Finally, at 29, she had enough. She was done with dieting. In the fall of 2013, Kelsey published her new manifesto, The Anti-Diet Project, on Refinery29.com. She vowed to stop counting calories and stop freaking out every time she had a bagel, but instead to work with intuitive eating specialists and exercise professionals to learn a healthier way to live.

In BIG GIRL, Kelsey chronicles her years of dieting and self-loathing as well as her eventual "a-ha moment" and her subsequent journey to find a better path. Funny, honest, and always relatable, this is a memoir for anyone who has ever failed to navigate our food- and body-obsessed culture and is looking for a happier and saner way forward.
