A Big Girl's Blues

Don't let the title fool you.  This book is not about being over weight but about loving yourself from the inside out!

Jasmine Tucker is yet again looking for the next miracle cure for being over weight.  She's tried every thing from exercise videos, over the counter drugs, prescription drugs and expensive exercise equipment.  She's even spent hundreds of  dollars on personal trainers, special food plans and extravagant weight loss spas.  No matter what she tries the weight seems to eventually return.  Like most woman who have gained weight over the years she hopes to one day wake up in her high school or college body.  The more weight Jasmines gains the more self-cautious she becomes and the less confident she is in her G0d given abilities and talents.  In her mind beauty and success centers around the outer extremities.  

Her supportive husband encourages her to be happy with what God gave her.  However, every time she looks in the mirror, she becomes depressed because she remembers how she used to look and she longs to see that person again.    She truly believes that her unhappiness, lack of recognition and  success is because of her appearance.  

After a string of tragic events, Jas is forced to reevaluate her life.  Jasmine realizes that the confidence she longed for was never present and has nothing to do with her weight gain.  Even when she was thin, she never really felt comfortable in her own skin.  Her journey for a fat cure becomes a lesson in self-discovery.  Jasmine realizes that the journey of being thin is actually a journey of living your dreams and being healthy and happy on the inside and out!
