Skinny Bitch.

I picked up this book at Chapters yesterday, as I've been trying to exercise and eat healthy lately, and thought this book might be funny and helpful. Little did I know it was a book about veganism. The first few chapters were entertaining enough, referring to Soda as "Liquid Satan" and talking about the evils of refined sugars. Then I got to chapter 4 "The Dead, Rotting, Decomposing Flesh Diet" and began reading about the horrible things that go into meat production. By the time I had read Chapter 5 "You are What you Eat" a horrifying picture of the meat industry, including quotes from slaughterhouse workers, I began to feel physically ill. We know that the meat industry is bad - but do we REALLY know? I'd always turned a blind eye to it...and eaten meat almost every day - McDonalds, Taco Bell, you name it. After reading this book I can't even stomach the thought of eating it.
Presto! I'm a Vegetarian.
Never thought it would be me - but I feel really good about it.

I will never preach - I hate Vegans/Vegetarians that preach and make people feel bad about themselves. All I will say, is if you want to continue to enjoy meat, stear clear of this book. It is misleading with it's title - this is no diet book. If you're curious, it's a great read.
