As a young girl, Marcia Meislin craved much more than food. But as her weight escalated, she kept feeding this hunger with cookies and snacks. The heavier she became (eventually 300 pounds), the more she felt like an outsider€"and the more she ate. Even her success as a sought-after public speaker couldn€t feed her deep emotional hunger.

Despite multiple diets, therapies, and two weight-loss surgeries, Marcia€s life didn€t change until her focus shifted from the number on the scale to the cravings at her core. This tearful and triumphant memoir chronicles Marcia Meislin€s liberation from the hell of food addiction and obesity and lights the way to a life of self-acceptance, fulfillment, and joy. It is a recipe for hope.
