Description

A heartbreakingly honest, endearing memoir of incredible weight loss by a young food blogger who battles body image issues and overcomes food addiction to find self-acceptance.

All her life, Andie Mitchell had eaten lustily and mindlessly. Food was her babysitter, her best friend, her confidant, and it provided a refuge from her fractured family. But when she stepped on the scale on her 20th birthday and it registered a shocking 268 pounds, she knew she had to change the way she thought about food and herself; that her life was at stake.

It Was Me All Along takes Andie from working class Boston to the romantic streets of Rome, from morbidly obese to half her size, from seeking comfort in anything that came cream-filled and two-to-a-pack to finding balance in exquisite (but modest) bowls of handmade pasta. This story is about much more than a woman who loves food and abhors her body. It is about someone who made changes when her situation seemed too far gone and how she discovered balance in an off-kilter world. More than anything, though, it is the story of her finding beauty in acceptance and learning to love all parts of herself.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Ce que les critiques en disent

"Andie Mitchell draws you in from the first cupcake - you taste the creamy frosting, feel every hunger pang, and your heart aches right along with hers. She beautifully exposes the dark and painful struggles of weight loss, food addiction, and self-hate that so many in this country face. Read this book because it offers wonderful lessons for healthy living, being kind to yourself, and finding balance. Read it because it's heartbreakingly honest and endearingly educational. (Alison Sweeney, host of NBC’s The Biggest Loser)
"Loving yourself is the bravest thing, and I'm so glad Andie found her bravery and was willing to share it. Cheers to chocolate cake in moderation and happiness in abundance!" (Giada De Laurentiis, author of Giada’s Feel Good Food)
"Andie's story, in which she takes us along for her 135-pound weight loss journey and makes peace with food, is remarkable. She chooses to see the positives from her past, and she realizes that who she was when she was bigger molded her into the person she is today. Andie is an inspiration to anyone who struggles with the challenges of dieting and weight loss." (Gina Homolka, author of The Skinnytaste Cookbook)

So moving, so refreshingly honest

We often only see the "after" photo and think thin is the ultimate happy ending. The author is so honestly raw and tells her story so endearingly. Very good read.

It resonated!

As soon as I heard about this book I knew it was for me. I cried, laughed, cried a bunch more.. it was therapy! It’s given me a lot to think about. If you’ve ever struggled with self worth and/or food, this book is for you!

Raw and honest

Andy speaks and writes from the heart —- a great listen. I highly recommend this to anyone who eats food.

Corny

Oof. This girl is a tad dramatic and overindulgent in so many areas, besides eating and food. She kind of treats her really nice boyfriend like crap, even though he clearly bends over backwards to make her happy. He calls her kiddo, so the daddy issues are alarming… I don’t think 23 year olds necessarily need to be writing memoirs, her immaturity is grating at times. Oh goodness, and the read is quite long-winded, saccharine, and precious.

Tried to love it

Seemed like it was all about food. It didn't teach me anything, it was just one persons story and got annoying after awhile. Really wanted to like it but didn't.

I wanted to love it

I think I had the incorrect impression about the book.

I thought it was about how the fat girl lost weight and stayed true to who she was all along.

I just kept waiting to get pulled in to the story.

But truly, I usually was hungry after listening to the book, not something I wanted to happen.

Oh well, I won’t love them all!
