From the first page to the last, I could not put this
book down! The book is written in a honest style from a unique point of view.
Chills, tears and happiness are just a few of the emotions I felt while reading this
book.

"While Ann Pai’s My Other Body is a magnificent monument to a beloved sister
who struggled with morbid obesity, and, ultimately, with life itself, it is much more
than that. It is a generous gift of empathy to everyone who has ever struggled
with the limitations of being a fallible human being. Readers, whether they are
personally fighting obesity or less visible demons, will thank Ann Pai for
understanding the difference between a problem and a person. My Other
Body is an advanced course on love, not the easy kind that some feel while
riding a wave of good fortune, but the hard kind, that loves more deeply as what
is most precious slips away."

- “Great to have a person with a personal insight of America’s leading
pandemic issue of obesity.” - “Incredible speaker and kept the audience engaged.”
- “It was good to hear about the other spectrum of eating disorders instead
of the usual anorexia/bulimia. It is such a huge issue for this nation.” - “Wow, this was a great presentation. I really enjoyed the means by which
she presented the information. Excellent testimonial.” - “Definitely bring her back. Advertise heavily; get as many people to come
as possible.”
