Life in the Fat Lane

 So I was reading this one book called Life in the Fat Lane. It was the best and most inspiring book I have ever read in so long. So just a brief summary but maybe not so brief. It's about a girl named Lara and she has the best life ever. She has the perfect family and she is the prettiest and most popular girl in school. (not to mention a perfect boyfriend.) She is super rich because of her grandfather and has the perfect body that all of her friends are so jealous of. But unfortunately she gets really bad allergies and her doctor puts her on prednisone, a drug that makes you really hungry and gain weight. Now here's where I come in. I had to be on this drug for quite some time myself. It was the worst experience possible where I gained a bunch of weight so I could definitely relate to her pain. Even more unfortunately though, she soon is diagnosed with Axell-Crowne, a disease that will make you gain weight no matter how much you exercise, how less you eat, and how anorexic or bulimic you try to become. She gains a ton of weight in just a few weeks and is extremely depressed. Her so called "friends" all ditch her and laugh behind her back except for her amazing boyfriend and most trustworthy friend Molly that has always been by her side and loved her for who she really was unlike her other "friends" who only loved her for how she looked. She tries everything she possibly could. Starving, puking, pills, and at one point she even wanted to kill herself. Her life just totally comes crashing down and finds out her family isn't even as perfect as she thought. Turns out her mom is a wreck and her dad has been having an affair for years. Anyway though the rest is for you to find out. I definitely encourage every teenage girl or just any girl at all to read this book. You WILL be inspired. Of course though it is not a perfect book and does have a few swear words in it so if you have a problem with that you may not want to read it but there's not one on like every page. Anyhoo, if you do read this book, you will enjoy it. It cry and laugh throughout the whole thing. Hope you have fun!
