In January 2001 Shauna Reid was twenty-three years old and twenty-five stone. Determined
to turn her life around, she created the hugely successful weblog The Amazing Adventures
of Dietgirl and, hiding behind her Lycra-clad roly-poly alter-ego, her transformation from
couch potato to svelte goddess began. Today, 8,000 miles, seven years and twelve-and-a-
half stone later, the gloriously gorgeous Shauna is literally half the woman she used to be.In
turn hysterically funny and heart-wrenchingly honest, The Amazing Adventures of Dietgirl
follows the twists and turns of Shauna's lard-busting adventure as she curbs the calories and
learns to love the gym. There are travel tales from Red Square to Reykjavik, plus romance
and intrigue as she meets the man of her dreams during a pub quiz in Glasgow. As her UK
visa rapidly runs out, will she be deported back to Australia or will love triumph? Entertaining
and action-packed, this is the uplifting true story of a young woman who defeated her
demons and conquered her cravings to become a weight-loss superhero to inspire us all.
