Sick of all those perfect, spandex-clad bodies you see flitting in and out of health clubs? Tired of being made to feel guilty because you might have put on, oh, a couple of pounds here and there? Join the club. Inside you'll find 365 hilariously biting affirmations that celebrate the joys of not following the slim-waisted, sunken-cheeked pack. Everyone who's had it up to here with today's health and fitness craze will enjoy such daily meditations as: Today I will accept that I have childbearing hips, which unfortunately seem to be geared toward the birth of a nation. Today I will take out a second mortgage in order to refinance my extensive plastic surgery so I can finally know true happiness. Today I will allow myself to fall peacefully asleep while watching my favorite exercise video. About the Authors Ann Thornhill and Sarah Wells consider themselves seasoned victims of the self-help craze. Friends since college, they live in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, where Ann is a freelance writer and Sarah is a practicing therapist.
Much like their first book, this is incredibly humorus. I was, at times, laughing out loud as I read it, cover to cover. Writing myself, I often wondered, "Why didn't I think of that?" A great pick-me-up for anyone. I have to say that my favorite was this: "I resent that other people's selfishness gets in the way of my own narcissim." Keep up the good work!
Another Winner!

If you liked their first book, Today I Will Nourish My Inner Martyr, you'll love this one! A perfect gift book for anyone with a sense of humor who feels "staying physically fit" is overrated. Get the fudge out and enjoy!!
