Book Description

November 29, 2011
This book will help heal your negative attitudes about body size and self-worth and provide new insights to raise your self-esteem and confidence. Women of ANY size will find comfort and inspiration in the cheerful and loving words of this motivational book based on the authors personal experience and deep emotional and spiritual wisdom about really seeing our own beauty and power and worth, regardless of body shape or size or weight. In the author's own words: "In my family, being fat was considered a sin. Well, to be honest, being overweight was a sin and fat well THAT was just completely unacceptable! From a very early age, I got the message that something was wrong with my size and that it was all my fault. I learned very early in life that my body was something to be ashamed of, and I unconsciously adopted the belief that I, as a human being, was a failure because of how I looked. Of course, the bad news for me was that, at that time, food was the only sense of nurturing and comfort that was available to me. And, needing that nurturing and comfort as badly as I did, I "failed" every weekly weigh-in in my teenage years and didn't learn to drive until I was 22 and had been out of my parents' house for 5 years! It's taken me the better part of 50 years to finally get the message that my value as a human being is not defined by a number on the scale or the size of my clothes. And to also understand that my size is nothing to be ashamed of, and therefore -- neither is yours!

Begin to Think a New Way December 26, 2011
Format:Paperback
As you repeat Bell's affirmations, even ones that you are not entirely convinced is true, it sets up "interrupts" within your brain, and you begin to consciously notice thoughts related to your belief that previously flew under your radar. By using an affirmation, you bring the negative concept up into the radar line where you can track it and create a new pathway for it. New neural pathways are formed and strengthened and pretty soon you've forgotten the old you - it's amazing!

If you think that any or all of you is a mistake, and if you are ready to change your belief, write one of Bell's affirmation out 21 times for 21 days! At the end of that period, you will be well on your way to far more empowering beliefs! I am!

Tapped into the Thinking! December 26, 2011
Format:Paperback
Stephanie Bell has really tapped into how plus-sized people think and offers this:

"When you think unloving thoughts about yourself, about any part of you, you are energetically creating a negative imprint on the very cells of your being. Since the Law of Attraction is always in action, that means you are attracting more negativity and self-loathing to yourself--since like attracts like.

And that means that joy will seldom find your doorstep because you are putting an energetic fortress of negativity up around yourself, keeping joy at way too far a distance to make any lasting impact on your life.

Create more joy in your life immediately by being mindful of the thoughts you think!"

If you've had low self esteem because of your weight - this book is for you!

Makes You Feel Good About YOU! December 26, 2011
Format:Paperback
It's somehow inherent in a woman's gene pool to be self-conscious, and that is frequently amplified in direct proportion to our dress size. But really--do you want to go out every day and wonder and worry what others are thinking of you? It's such a futile thing to do! Even by so-called "model" standards, when a supermodel walks through a mall there are people thinking she's too skinny, she's too hoity, she's got this or that going on! When you walk out your front door, now you can just feel good about you!
