About this listen

Diet Starts Monday is a no-BS guide to body acceptance in a looks-obsessed world.

Plus-size TV personality and body confidence advocate Laura Adlington has struggled with her weight (and the weight of other people's opinions) her entire life. Here, in conversation with experts including doctors, psychologists and nutritionists, Laura reveals just how detrimental diet culture is to health, and explores where our true worth lies.

Packed with personal stories and practical advice, this book will help you find peace with your body – not be at constant war with it.

By undoing negative ingrained beliefs about beauty and value, and focusing on building inner confidence, Diet Starts Monday will empower you to live a fun and full life – whatever your size.©2024 Laura Adlington

I recently finished "Diet Starts Monday" by Laura Adlington, and I can't express how much I enjoyed it. The book is exceptionally well-written and resonates deeply with anyone who has faced challenges related to weight loss and bullying. Laura addresses the constant struggle with dieting and the societal pressures surrounding body image in a way that feels incredibly relatable.

What surprised me most was her valuable insight into various situations; it truly made me feel as though I wasn't alone in my experiences. With a perfect balance of humor, Laura discusses the negative attitudes we often hold towards ourselves when we are plus-sized, shedding light on the reasons behind these feelings.

It's clear that Laura has poured her heart and soul into this book. It not only raises awareness about these important issues but also provides practical coping mechanisms to navigate them. I would highly recommend this book to anyone looking for a fantastic read that inspires self-acceptance and understanding.

Overall, "Diet Starts Monday" is a remarkable journey filled with genuine reflections and support, making it a must-read for those seeking comfort and guidance on their own paths.
