These days everyone has a society-driven mindset and totally forget to laugh, especially at themselves.  This may be cliché but I truly believe that laughter is the best medicine and I think everybody should laugh every day.  Period.  Over the years as a person blessed with the fat gene, I have been in many situations where if could not find humor I probably would end up on the couch in a psychiatrist’s office.   This book may be considered politically incorrect regarding such a subject but it is based on reality.  This is a reality that many women have just like me but do not think they can (or should) at times just laugh about it.    My intention when I started writing this book was to hopefully give insight to  many who could never relate but at the same time perhaps provide a different perspective to women just like me.  It is a point of view that has given me the strength to live my life happily and project these feelings onto everyone I come in contact with.  I have a great sense of humor and a quit wit and guarantee you will be laughing (and thinking) with each chapter of Making Light of Being Heavy.
