If you are on the prowl for a unique diet and weight-loss book, Carol Lay's The Big Skinny: How I Changed My Fattitude will definitely be a good read for you.
This material is one-of-a-kid due to its format: a graphic novel and memoir about how the author has struggled in her quest for weight loss. With the use of her wits and special visual talents, she has managed to convey her story in a very artistic and entertaining way.
The Big Skinny, being a memoir, is a good way in which Lay has found the most effective ways for her to shed pounds. Here, you will find the tips and techniques how you can also make it work, with bits and pieces of hilarious anecdotes like nightmares of George Clooney offering her fast food and Girl Scouts parading their cookies.
The tips you can find in the graphic novel is more on how you can attack weight loss on your own methods, and not on the more traditional ways. It also tells more on what you should eat, stories about calorie counts with a list of recipes and calorie charts.
What is great about the Big Skinny is that it is very inspirational, being a real life story of the art creator herself. It is also very humorous which is a good and unique way to tackle weight loss and even more, motivate potential dieters.
However, if you want to lose fat quickly, this is not the text for you. Though the art book was developed through years of searching for the right ways to lose weight, it cannot guarantee weight loss in a blink of an eye. Nevertheless, if you are just thinking and looking around in preparation for a full-blown diet and weight loss program, you can definitely have a kick with this amazing read.
