Fatty fatty boom boom : a memoir of food, fat, and family
(Book)

"A memoir about food, body image, and growing up in a loving but sometimes oppressively concerned Pakistani immigrant family"--,Provided by publisher.

Chaudry was raised with a lot of love-- and a lot of that love looked like food. Delicious Pakistani dishes, and an abundance of American processed foods, caused her family to become alarmed about their chubby daughter's future. How would she ever get married? Here Chaudry chronicles the dozens of times she tried and failed to achieve what she was told was her ideal weight-- and in doing so shows us how freeing it is to finally make peace with the body we have. -- adapted from jacket
