The Fat Chance Guide to Dieting - Claudia Pattison

Think nothing tastes as good as slim feels? You''re obviously not eating the right food . . .

Holly, Naomi and Kate are determined to win the battle of the bulge. So it''s down to the local slimming club, where carbs are strictly off the menu and there''s no escaping the scales. But calorie-counting isn''t the only thing on their minds.

But with tempting buffet tables, highly competitive contestants and even the odd fat fetishist lurking, it''s anyone''s guess as to what will happen . . .
