Williams, Jayne. Shape Up with the Slow Fat Triathlete. Da Capo Lifelong. Jan. 2009. c.272p. index. ISBN 978-1-56924-391-6. pap. $15.95. HEALTH~In her previous The Slow Fat Triathlete, Williams described her transformation from couch potato to triathlete. This humorous follow-up explains how fitness does not necessarily lead to a magazine-perfect body. It's alright to be what some call ""overweight""; it doesn't matter what you look like in a bathing suit. What's important is getting out there and moving. Williams supplies tips for letting go of the worst obstacle of all-self-consciousness. At last something for real people; highly recommended..
