Preface: how to tell if you think you’re fat

All women think they’re fat. Here’s how to tell if you think you’re fat, too.

TEN TOP TIPS

You think you’re fat if:

 You’re reading this book.

 You think not eating is a good thing.

 You think you’re fat even though no one else does.

 You think you’d like yourself better if you were thinner.

 You think that people who don’t eat are better than you.

 Unless catering for others, you have nothing in your fridge except a small sliver of mouldy cheese and a rancid piece of fruit, both of which you know you’ll eat rather than chuck out.

 You never order pudding but eat a bit of someone else’s.

 You decide not to have a glass of wine because you’re ‘not drinking at the moment’, and then have half a glass but not in a wineglass, and then top it up but only halfway again, and so on – but manage to end your evening still kidding yourself you didn’t have a drink.

 You’ve got clothes in your cupboard that are too small for you and you’ve never worn but can’t get rid of because they are going to fit just as soon as you’ve lost some weight.

 The title of this book means anything to you.
