You Are What You Eat: Michelle"s Diary
At only 5 foot 1 inch and weighing in at a frightening 19 stone (266 lbs), Michelle McManus was not your average pop star. Yet since winning the ITV hit talent show Pop Idol in 2003, the 24-year-old Glaswegian defied critics and piled on a further 3 stone. At the end of 2004, Michelle decided enough was enough and agreed to subject her eating habits to "You Are What You Eat" analysis through the show"s tough but fair presenter Gillian McKeith, and overhaul her entire approach to food - and booze. Now Michelle has shed nearly half her body weight. This is a no-holds-barred diary of her year, by turns moving, shocking and full of fun, feisty, straight talk for which she is famous, as well as featuring exclusive meal and exercise plans, so you can adopt her healthy living approach at home. It is an inspiration to women everywhere.
