Book description
At some point in their lives, almost everyone suffers the pangs of notching up a few unwanted pounds. But for Elizabeth Taylor, the world’s media were standing by to record her downfall as she gave in to an addiction just as compulsive as drink or drugs.
With compelling candour, she tells of the private anguish that led her to seek solace in food — and the bitter realisation before her bedroom mirror that enough was enough. Included too, is the diet and exercise regime that helped her look — not as good as before — but even better!
In an age where slimness is an international obsession, her story is "a victory for anyone who has ever lost their self-image and self-esteem" — and an inspiration to anyone who wants to win them back.
