"Written in brief, punchy chapters...Those curious about the pros and cons of weight loss surgery will find some answers here, though Whitely makes it clear that her decision is a personal one and that others might take different paths."-- Kirkus
Synopsis
A brutally honest story about being fat in America--and one woman's experience with radical weight loss after a lifetime of fat shaming Kara Richardson Whitely thought she could do anything. After all, she climbed Mount Kilimanjaro-three times But now she's off the mountain and back home again, and there's one thing she just can't manage to do: lose weight. In many ways, Kara is living the life of everywoman, except that she's not everywoman because she weighs 300 pounds and is tormented by binge eating disorder. Her weight is a constant source of conflict and shame, as the people from every corner of her life, from her coworkers to the neighbors down the street, judge Kara for the size of her body. When it becomes just too much to tolerate, Kara turns to therapy and weight-loss surgery, a choice that transforms her body-and her life. Kara's story is one of living as a fat woman in America, where fat prejudice is rampant despite our nation's pandemic of obesity. In this fresh, raw memoir, Kara reveals this epic contradiction, and offers a revealing comparison of life before and after radical weight loss., Kara Richardson Whitely thought she could do anything. After all, she climbed Mount Kilimanjaro three times! But now she s off the mountain and back home again, and there s one thing she just can t manage to do lose weight. In many ways, Kara is living the life of everywoman, except that she s not everywoman because she weighs 300 pounds. Her weight is a constant source of conflict and shame, as the people from every corner of her life from her daughter s pediatrician to her mother in law judge Kara for the size of her body. In The Weight of Being , Kara shares the most intimate aspects of life as she experiences it as a fat woman, looking deep into the ways her body influences her marriage, her sex life, her children, her career, and her friendships. The stories she tells hit all kinds of nerves. Some are shocking, like the time she was shot with a BB gun by a neighbor's son who used her backside for target practice. Others are heartbreaking when her pediatrician suggests that her daughter s weight isn t healthy, the mortification Kara feels is viscerally painful. Kara s story is one of living as a fat woman in America, where fat prejudice is rampant, despite our nation s pandemic of obesity. In this fresh, raw memoir, Kara reveals this epic contradiction, reminding us all that fat lives are deserving of esteem, dignity, and respect.

Wish more time was spent talking about experiences after the surgery. Sometimes content was choppy.
