Summary
Diet Starts Monday is a no-BS guide to body acceptance in a looks-obsessed world.
Plus-size TV personality and body confidence advocate Laura Adlington has struggled with her weight (and the weight of other people's opinions) her entire life. Here, in conversation with experts including doctors, psychologists and nutritionists, Laura reveals just how detrimental diet culture is to health, and explores where our true worth lies.
Packed with personal stories and practical advice, this book will help you find peace with your body – not be at constant war with it.
By undoing negative ingrained beliefs about beauty and value, and focusing on building inner confidence, Diet Starts Monday will empower you to live a fun and full life – whatever your size.

Educational, heart warming and thought provoking. I loved it.
Loved hearing about Laura’s experiences which really resonated with me. As somebody be who’d had my body commented on my entire life, I thought that I was displaying positive body behaviours in front of my nieces, now I realise I have some work to do. ❤️

Laura's lovely voice and the powerful message of her book.
I loved this book. It takes a deep dive into why we often have such negative body image, made me realise that there has been so much societal influence on how I see myself and, most importantly, has made me be a bit more compassionate towards myself and my body. I highly recommend everyone reads this book, well done Laura!

You’ll feel very seen
This book is an amazing reminder that we all go through the motions. Some things in life can feel so isolating but when you then feel like others can relate to your internal struggles…that is really everything! This is an important book. Every woman and every man should read this or listen to it. Thank you, Laura Adlington, for your brave vulnerability and strength. I appreciate you!

Insight and researched well
I liked how the whole book was researched backed and then practical too. I enjoyed listening to it. Many things are hard as a larger body and people don’t treat people kindly. I hope more people read / listen to understand
