"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.
when i was reading this book, it mostly felt like portia de rossi was sitting right in front of me and talking, revealing her unknown miserable past, like i was her therapist. 最开始听说这本书是去年底。虽然很喜欢ellen degerenes以及ellen show,很少关注她...
评分当初看到portia上oprah 还有 ellen 节目时声泪俱下的样子就着实被震撼到了,这个在我看来有着足够skinny身材的女人,曾经有过多不堪回首的一段历程?也正是因为太多的眼泪,太多对过往的回忆,我放弃了网络上随手可找到的电子版,认真的等待二十多天买来了正版实体书。 ...
评分Once I thought of leaving this book unfinished, because I felt agonized before last chapter. Thanks God for my compulsion forcing me to end it so I hadn’t miss this valuable lesson. My psychological states changed several times during this reading. First,...
评分I have gotten an impression before, that there is a grand moment when all the sudden one important change happens, once forever. But the truth seems to be that it is always a slow and painful process to make a difference. Only after that, we may record one ...
评分终于辗转看完了这本书。入坑是因为在b站看到了姬圈楷模Ellen和Portia的高糖剪辑。其中有一段,Portia含着眼泪说Ellen改变了她。带着好奇心,看了这本书。本来以为,这本自传跟世面上成千上万的自传一样,通过营造人设消费隐私的圈钱书,没想到却看到了一个异常真实的Portia。 P...
我觉得每个人心底都会有那么阴暗的东西 折磨你 不断提醒你 扔给你负能量, 可贵的是如何真的走出来 如何真的接受它
评分误打误撞遇见的好书。Accept yourself. Love yourself. Be healthy and be happy.
评分Portia can write. [I'm not bragging, but Portia signed my book.]
评分Candid and relatable except the boring happy-ending | 其实人是不可能被任何外在事物“拯救”的——只能是适应环境的产物——这点上Portia很是坦诚。| 如果看过Wasted的话,会觉得这本文笔和情感/思维深度都不够(和Ellen相关的部分也不多),但仍然贵在其真实。对九十年代怀有记忆的人都知道存活不易(但貌似LA附近房价要比现在低得多?)
评分Thank you Portia for sharing.
