They’re not trying to win popularity contests . . . they just want healthy people.” —Associated Press News Syndicate “Ready to jump-start [the year] with an electric prod to the system?. . . They tell it like it is, and without delicacy.” —Chicago Sun Times “There’s more solid advice in Skinny Bitch than in most diet and health books.” —Bitch Magazine “By no means for the faint hearted . . . this is as hard hitting as it comes!” —Hot Stars (UK) “This diet book doesn’t sugar-coat what you have to do to lose weight.” —Grazia “It made me laugh . . .” — Marie Claire UK “Sensible advice . . .” —Health & Fitness UK “ . . . an absolutely hilarious read . . . refreshingly in-your-face funny. . . . What are you waiting for, you moron? Go buy this book!” —Florida Today “What makes this diet easy to swallow is the book’s tough-love attitude—part best-friend counsel, part drill-sergeant abuse and a dash of sailor mouth, wrapped in a pretty chick-lit package.” —iVillage, Diet & Fitness
