A biography depicting a real-life account of one woman’s incredible weight-loss story, sharing the struggles and successes throughout the journey of losing half her body weight all on her own, transforming not just herself, but her whole life—with an underlying message about going for your goals, no matter what they may be…
Carli Jay was just an average girl in her late 20s working a full-time job and living life to the maximum, partying and travelling the world, enjoying one day to the next. Although she had been morbidly obese her entire life and always struggled with her relationship with food, the latest diet trends, fads and exercise (or lack of…), she didn’t let this stop her.
It wasn’t until one day she had a rude awakening to her health that she decided to change all that and take control of not just her body but her health too. She wanted to change her whole lifestyle and her mentality towards being ‘fit’.
Carli decided to make it her mission to prove to anyone no matter if it’s 10 lb or 50 lb you want to lose, you really can do it! And all you need is you and just a little inner self-belief to make it happen!
1. Carli seemed to contradict herself by saying how happy she was all the time and then calling herself miserable in her relationship
2. Sentences were often run-on or fragments - maybe that doesn't matter to her audience?
3. I would have liked to see more specifics to what she ate and how she ate - people desperate to lose weight want facts, not generalities
What I liked:
1. Her ability to communicate the turning point for change - the inability to skydive, especially, and how she used that as a motivating factor
2. Her honesty and willingness to share her story and photos with others.
