Publisher's Synopsis
With the odds stacked against her, Elaine lost 50 pounds in one year. She has a sluggish thyroid, does not have a spleen, takes medication that causes weight gain, had a slipped disk, and has bad knees making any form of exercise extremely difficult. On the only diet that has ever worked for her, she went from a size 22 to a 12 by eating only restaurant meals.
