Fat AcceptanceJourneys to Self Acceptance I compiled Journeys to Self Acceptance: Fat Women Speak as part of my fat acceptance journey. This book contains 24 first-person essays by fat women who have learned self acceptance in a fat-hating society. More than half of American women wear size 14 or larger. Many of these women have been brainwashed into believing they can be happy only if they lose weight. This book is about women who have broken free of this lie and learned to love themselves as they are. The message is fat positive and size acceptance. Journeys to Self Acceptance was published in 1994 by The Crossing Press and is now out-of-print. I have a box of new books, and when they are gone, that's it. Read a sample fat acceptance essay from Journeys to Self Acceptance. Order this fat acceptance book through a secure PayPal transaction. Only $2.95--that's $7 off the original $9.95 cover price (plus $2.50 shipping for the up to 3 books). I'm PayPal Verified. You can also contact me with questions or comments.
