Current Read

From a recommendation, I am reading...

I have always struggled with eating carbs and how they seem to make we crave more sweets. By reading this book, I have been enlightened about how this works and what it does. The sweets thing worries me, especially with diabetes regular in our family.

This is a good book and very interesting. After reading into it and then going to the store, I can see how this would be difficult to do, as it takes dedication.

If you are interested in more info, check out this book.

 

My Current Read - a memoir by Amanda Beard

 

My Current Read 

Have you ever tried to explain to people why you read the books you do? Have you ever been kind of ashamed to tell the truth?  I find myself attracted to books I can relate to, mentally, physically, emotionally. I am not sure if others find books based on that type of relationship, but I do. I find those that I can relate to more intriguing... knowing I am not alone in my struggles with life.

I don't share a lot about myself and many don't know much about me, but there are things that I keep hidden away, locked away, as so many people won't understand. This book I found, while "wandering". The overview hit me and struck a chord. The story of Amanda has so many similarities to my own life that I reserved it Wednesday morning and ran to get it at lunch. I haven't put it down since.

I found this book, while browsing Barnes & Noble. Amanda is an Olympic medalist, a world-class swimmer, a model, and a real person... battling depression, eating disorders, and self-destructive behavior,

"In this candid and ultimately uplifting memoir, Olympic medalist Amanda Beard reveals the truth about coming of age in the spotlight, the demons she battled along the way, and the new-found happiness that has proved to be her greatest victory."

If you get a chance, check it out. Even models and Olympic medalists have demons too.
