Having struggled with being overweight her entire life, Sara has grown quite accustomed to loneliness...meanwhile, the unfortunate ramifications of childbirth have wreaked havoc on Peggy’s hard-earned, once enviable figure...as a result of their ongoing obsessions with their weight, Sara and Peggy enroll in Sunrise, an exclusive weight-loss program with a remarkable success rate. Exactly how is Sunrise able to transform the lives of so many desperate souls? By incorporating quite the different motivation for losing weight: instead of putting its students through a rigorous regimen of grueling exercise and forced starvation, Sunrise pampers its participants by treating them to paradisial conditions and surrounding them with gorgeous men who cater to their every whim...if only everything could be so easy...

Insightful, engaging, and surprisingly amusing, Fat Camp is quite the satisfying read. In it, author Linda Rentschler presents the reader with a unique, novel concept: rather than torturing yourself on the way to progress – love yourself to it instead. Confronting the greater issues of societal pressure, unrealistic expectations – and, of course, self-esteem – Fat Camp is less a story about losing weight and more an enlightening tale highlighting the importance of learning to accept ourselves as we are. By placing the emphasis on the true end goal, Rentschler successfully invokes within the reader a greater appreciation for the individual sojourns we all must take through life – reminding us that, though our destinations may be different, the journey is highly rewarding in and of itself.

With a compelling, endearing appeal, Fat Camp is an uplifting true-to-life tale with invaluable life lessons to share.
