Take Your Life Back (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780615450704)

How Does Obesity Happen to a Child Too Little to Reach the Cookie Jar? Take Your Life Back unveils the secret pain and sadness of a little girl struggling to be what her world called, normal. Weighing over eighty pounds at the age of six and more than two-hundred pounds by the time she reached the sixth grade, it appeared, "normal" was something that she would never be. This young overweight child would grow up to be an overweight adult of more than three hundred pounds. Childhood obesity progressed into adulthood obesity, and would seem to have claimed the life of another victim, until one day, Author, Lois Peres, decided to take her life back! "Obesity knows no boundaries. It simply takes prisoners; and for some, their lives." Lois shares openly in this epic story of her courage, determination, and commitment to regain control of her life. She recalls her struggles, pain, heartache, anger, and tremendous desperation for help that seemed to be never-ending. Take Your Life Back is both a wakeup call and plea for action. Be prepared to feel the pain of reality, but get ready to be set free by the truth.
