Cutting Myself In Half Health Communications - January 2010 - 5,50x8,60in - 216pp |
The teen years can be agonizing for those who struggle with serious weight issues, with typical teenage stress multiplied by low self-esteem and social anxiety. Fourteen-year-old Taylor Le Baron was one of those teens: he had trouble finding clothes that fit, became winded after just a few minutes of walking, and was the target of fat jokes. He was over the weight limit for amusement park rides and bunk beds, and knew he was facing a lifetime of health-related issues like high blood pressure, osteoarthritis, and type II diabetes if he didn't make some drastic changes. Taylor decided he had to change both his sedentary lifestyle and his eating habits. Now, he shares his personal story in a way that is honest and transparent, and will inspire millions of overweight and obese children and teens to get fit. Taylor decided to attack his food and fitness challenges as he would a video game. The Ultimate Fitness Game (UFG) he created gave him the discipline he needed to drop 150 pounds.
