As someone who has dealt with the challenges of weight gain and weight loss all of my life, I was inspired by Peggy's heart-warming story of her journey to make a positive change in her life with the help of her beloved dog, Kelly. Peggy blends humor, candor, and practicality in a wonderful way. - Julie Hadden, from NBC's The Biggest Loser and author of Fat Chance, Losing the Weight, Gaining My Worth.

It is for anyone who has challenging relationship with food - using it for comfort and to stave off boredom, for those who have battled with weight all their lives, or anyone who suddenly finds, after years of not having to think about their body, that they are suddenly piling on the fat.
