BOOK REVIEW for The Beginning of Shi*t: An unapologetic Weight Loss Memoir by Suzanne Culberg

 


TITLE:            The Beginning is Sh*t: An apologetic Weight Loss Memoir

AUTHOR:        Suzanne Culberg

Genre:                Memoir

RATING:           5/5 stars

I loved this book.  

Suzanne is very honest about her weight as well as her situation.  She basically  wrote a book that could easily describe me, minus the kids and all the crying.  

Seriously, what is up with all that crying? getting angry, I get, feeling frustrated, scared.....all valid, but the crying on every other page was the one thing I found annoying.  

If you want to know how being overweight and feeling out of control sounds like, then read this book - everything she wrote touched me.

I also question the roles her family, hubby, and friends have in her life.  They are basically rarely mentioned, and at one point, I seriously thought she had divorced and chose not to tell us.


Bottom line, loved the honesty. I totally loved the pace of this book, and I totally identified.
