Synopsis

Diet Starts Monday is a no-BS guide to body acceptance in a looks-obsessed world.

Plus-size TV personality and body confidence advocate Laura Adlington has struggled with her weight (and the weight of other people's opinions) her entire life. Here, in conversation with experts including doctors, psychologists and nutritionists, Laura reveals just how detrimental diet culture is to health, and explores where our true worth lies.

Packed with personal stories and practical advice, this book will help you find peace with your body – not be at constant war with it.

By undoing negative ingrained beliefs about beauty and value, and focusing on building inner confidence, Diet Starts Monday will empower you to live a fun and full life – whatever your size.
