About this listen

When A.J. Rochester is singled out as the ideal candidate for a television show on obesity, she is at first appalled and then resolved. Enough is enough. She vows to lose forty kilos - not because she yearns to become a pretzel, but so she can keep up with her little boy and turn her life around at last.

A funny, insightful and inspiring account of a woman who lost forty kilos without losing her sense of humour - and discovered a whole new life.

A must for anyone trying to lose weight. Funny, sad, honest and intelligent. I love the way she cuts through the crap. Very relatable.

Loved this book!

Confessions describes the journey of the author A J Rochester from fat to thin. Along the way she deals with her abused childhood, anorexia, bulemia and laxative abuse along with constant feelings of not being good enough. With the aid of Crusher (personal trainer) and Nutcase (pyschiatrist) she transforms herself and faces her personal demons. You would think that this story would be depressing but even in her darkest moments AJ manages to find humour in her situation and by the end you will be willing her along to loose those last pounds.

An inspiration for those, like me, that have all but given up on losing weight. When you hear what AJ has to go through, your problems seem pale in comparison and I for one have decided to give weight loss another go.

I so enjoyed this book.I listen to it on a long car journey with my daughter and at times we actually laughed out loud.Anyone who has ever dieted will identify with some of the stories she tells. I did not know A J Rochester from the biggest loser,it is a really good "true" storybut her voice did grate after a while.

Such a laugh

I played this on my journey to and from work. I laughed so much, I arrived in a great mood.

Ajay writes and reads with such humour and honesty. This book is refreshing.

Even if you don't follow her methods the 'whole hog', there are many pointers to use in every day life which would aid leading a healthier lifestyle and weight loss.

I recommend this book very highly.

What a pleasure. Entertaining and informative.
