Stephanie Klein was an eighth grader with a weight problem. Teased by her classmates, reminded by her father that no one likes fat girls, and a witness to her thin mother's compulsive dissatisfaction with her own body, Stephanie's problem was not solved by being sent to "fat camp". She shares her thoughts and feelings of that time in her life with her readers, just as she reveals her mind-set now as a physically fit, and thin, wife and mother.
