Who’s The New Kid? – Book Review
As the mother of a beautiful but once morbidly obese girl, Heidi Bond knows what it’s like to fear for her daughter’s future.
She knows what it’s like to watch her 3-year old daughter gasp for breath each night because she has sleep apnea.
She knows what it’s like to see her child bullied because of her size.
She also knows what it’s like to get fed up and to help her daughter reclaim her life.
In Who’s The New Kid?, Heidi shares the story of how she watched her beautiful daughter Breanna morph into a morbidly obese, 9-year old girl who once topped the scales at 186 pounds.
She candidly shares how she finally broke through the walls of helplessness and hopelessness and decided to fight back.
She also shares the tips and tools she used to help her daughter return to a healthy weight and regain her life without the aid of fad diets, medications or weight loss surgery.
In just over a year, Breanna dropped 40 percent of her body weight through healthy eating and good old-fashioned exercise.
Who’s The New Kid? includes the recipes, shopping lists and nutritional and motivational tips that can help you to transform your child’s life as well!
Who’s The New Kid? is an insightful and inspiring book that shows that change is possible.
I highly recommend this book to you.
I rate this book 5 out of 5 stars.
