"I didn't decide to become anorexic. It snuck up on me disguised as a healthy diet, a professional attitude. Although there was a certain glamour to anorexics, I didn't want to be one. I just wanted to excel in dieting. And weighing in at 80 pounds on 300 calories a day, I was the best little dieter there ever was." In scalding prose, Portia de Rossi reveals the pain and illness that haunted her for decades. She alternately starved herself and binged, putting her life in danger and lying to herself and everyone around her about the depth of her illness. From her lowest point, Portia began the painful climb back to health and happiness, ultimately falling head over heels in love with Ellen DeGeneres. In this remarkable and landmark book, she tells a story that inspires hope and nourishes the spirit.
“True nobility is not about being better than anyone else; it's about being better than you used to be." Be true to yourself.

误打误撞遇见的好书。Accept yourself. Love yourself. Be healthy and be happy.
评分老实说,整本书的结构有问题,用了90%的篇幅写自己如何坠落暗黑世界并且挣扎,用10%就突然讲如何变好了,而且这10%里面还有一半是讲后来的反复,最后整本书的2%就讲现在自己的良好状态etc。无论是站在八卦还是站在关心还是站在同病相学的角度,中间那只占了3%的如何recover的内容才是最关键的啊!Porshe姐啊。而且到底是F让你变好了呢还是ellen让你变好了呢还是你压根就是自救了呢?不过总的来说,真是非常非常诚实坦白。如此一般,也可看出P姐现在内心十分强大。
