Ada Howard, the wife of the preacher at Nashvilleβs Full Love Baptist Tabernacle, has a whole lot of people to take care of. Thereβs her husband, of course, and the flock that comes with him, plus the kids at the day care where she works, two grown daughters, and two ailing parents. Itβs no wonder she canβt find time to take care of herself. And her husbandβs been so busy lately sheβs suspicious some other woman may be taking care of him β¦ Then it comes: the announcement of her twenty-five-year college reunion in twelve monthsβ time, signed with a wink by her old flame. Ada gets to thinking about the thrills of young love lost, and the hundred or so pounds gained since her college days, and she decides itβs high time for a health and beauty revival. So she starts laying down some rules. The first rule is: Donβt Keep Doing What Youβve Always Been Doing. And so begins a long journey on the way to less weight and more love. Adaβs Rules will hit a nerve in our overweight and weight- obsessed world. An inspiring role model, Ada is also a relatable everywoman: smart, sassy, soulful, and unforgettable. Her hard-earned rules are about changing a body and a lifeβand also about falling back in love with the life you have.
