This review is from: The Me I Knew I Could Be: How I Lost 157 Pounds, Gained Self-Esteem, and a Healthier Life and How You Can, Too! (Paperback)
In her revealing book The Me I Knew I Could Be, Crystal Phillips shares her extraordinary journey of how she first began to gain weight as a young woman, to the period in her life where she binged her way to some 292 pounds, to the things she did to get down to a size 6. This book is more than about dieting tips; Crystal gets very transparent when she admits her passion for food and how she had to discover the root of her problems that made her want to binge. Through entries from a journal that she maintained, Crystal discusses her former marriage and how she knew they shouldn't have wed; she discloses the hurt she felt when her brother died from an incurable disease; and she tells the challenges she endured when she wanted to make a lifestyle change; how she learned to love herself for who she was. Inspiring, humorous, shocking and at times sad, The Me I Knew I Could Be will read like a novel with its conversational tone. It will answer inspire you to believe you can achieve anything (not just losing weight). The book is positive, sparkles with hope, and will empower you to find and live your life's purpose.

This review is from: The Me I Knew I Could Be: How I Lost 157 Pounds, Gained Self-Esteem, and a Healthier Life and How You Can, Too! (Paperback)
Crystal Phillips' story of her journey to a new life is very inspiring. After her brother's tragic death and the abuse from her husband, Crystal had hit rock bottom, weighing almost 300 pounds due to all of the emotional baggage that she carried around inside of her heart. Eating was her emotional release when she was faced with problems that she could not handle. Finally, Crystal decided that she just could not continue to live her life this way, after a friend had invited her to church one New Year's Eve. From that day forward, she was determined to live a healthier life, gain her self-esteem back, and be the woman she knew she could be!! 'The Me I Knew I Could Be' is filled with workout plans, healthy recipes, and tips to start you on your way to living a better, healthier, fullfilling life!
