Description: Skinny Bitch : A No-Nonsense, Tough-Love Guide for Savvy Girls Who Want to Stop Eating Crap and Start Looking Fabulous! by Rory Freedman and Kim Barnouin (2005, Trade Paperback) Skinny Bitch by Rory Freedman and Kim Barnouin (2005, Trade Paperback) About this product Product InformationNot your typical boring diet book, this is a tart-tongued, no-holds-barred wakeup call to all women who want to be thin. With such blunt advice as, "Soda is liquid Satan" and "You are a total moron if you think the Atkins Diet will make you thin," it's a rallying cry for all savvy women to start eating healthy and looking radiant. Unlike standard diet books, it actually makes the reader laugh out loud with its truthful, smart-mouthed revelations. Behind all the attitude, however, there's solid guidance. Skinny Bitch espouses a healthful lifestyle that promotes whole grains, fruits, and vegetables, and encourages women to get excited about feeling "clean and pure and energized."Product IdentifiersPublisherRunning PressISBN-100762424931ISBN-139780762424931eBay Product ID (ePID)45958649Product Key FeaturesAuthorRory Freedman, Kim BarnouinPublication NameSkinny Bitch : A No-Nonsense, Tough-Love Guide for Savvy Girls Who Want to Stop Eating Crap and Start Looking Fabulous!FormatTrade PaperbackLanguageEnglishPublication Year2005TypeTextbookNumber of Pages224 PagesDimensionsItem Length7.3inItem Height0.6inItem Width5.3inItem Weight8.8 OzAdditional Product FeaturesLc Classification NumberRm222.2.F7238 2005ReviewsHartford Courant "...incredibly informative and entertaining...
