From the back cover

Lara is twenty and obese, and for eight years her mother has cooked nutritious meals and urged her to exercise. Each time, Lara answers that she was born weighing seven pounds, so her weight is her mother's fault, and her grandmother agrees, blaming the mother for overfeeding her in the womb. When a doctor warns that Lara is pre-diabetic with dangerously high cholesterol, the grandmother dismisses it and piles her plate with fried chicken and rich food.

Then a FaceTime call arrives from Lara ten years in the future, now five hundred pounds and unable to leave home. The mother pleads with the doctor for medication prescribed under her own name, but the grandmother calls it poison meant to harm her granddaughter, and Lara refuses to take it.

As the grandmother cooks ever more extravagant meals, only the mother can hear the future Lara begging to be saved.

Inside the book Opening excerpt

My 20-year-old daughter was obese. She started gaining weight in middle school, and now she weighed 200 pounds.

I worried about her health, so I prepared nutritious meals for her and encouraged her to exercise every day, but she didn't take the problem seriously.

"I was born weighing 7 pounds. It's your fault for making me so fat when I was in your womb."

For eight years, every time I urged her to lose weight, that was her reply.

Just as I was losing hope and considering giving up, I received a FaceTime call from my daughter 10 years in the future.
