Ruby Gettinger, the endearing and beloved star of The
Style Network's hit reality show Ruby, reveals the most
private aspects of her life-altering journey to conquer
morbid obesity and to attain health and happiness in this
inspirational book based on her personal diary From the debut of The Style Network's number one reality
show Ruby, viewers fell in love with its sweet and spirited
Southern star, and remain mesmerized by her public mission
to overcome her inner conflicts and win her ongoing battle
with weight. At her heaviest, Ruby weighed more than 700 pounds. Although
she wasn't quite sure how she got to this point—or why—one
thing was clear: it was killing her. Her doctor warned that
her diabetes was raging out of control and that she could
die at any moment. Vowing to change her life to save it,
Ruby made a genuine commitment to uncover all of the
underlying physical and psychological causes of her food
addiction—an act of courage that has helped her lose nearly
400 pounds so far! To support her on this difficult path,
Ruby has kept a journal of her experiences, including
intimate reflections, surprising discoveries, and current
fears, hopes, and dreams, many of which she shares here. Filled with honesty, optimism, and classic "Rubyisms" as
well as revealing insights from her friends, family, and
team of experts, Ruby's Diary is a remarkable record of one
determined woman's complex challenges and her many laudable
achievements. Ruby's perseverance is not only an example to
all those battling their own weight and addiction issues, it
is an example to all those grappling with personal obstacles
of any kind. Anyone not in love with Ruby just hasn't met
her yet!
