More DescriptionAfter stepping on her bathroom scale in the summer of 2010, Diana Worden Karmin finally decided that - at 52 years old and weighing 263 pounds - it was time to escape from the crushing chest pains, the nearly crippling joint pain, and the deepening depression with a goal of getting under 200 pounds. By January 2011, after months of dieting and exercise, she slipped into a pair of Size 16 jeans and felt absolutely triumphant. Eighteen months later, she had not only met - but far exceeded her original goal - by (ever so briefly) fitting into a Size 2. Over her lifetime she's worn every size from a 22 to that elusive Size 2...which explains why she owes Lord & Taylor over $3000! Diana has documented her struggles in Escaping From Food Coma - The Literal Ups and Downs of Life with an Eating Disorder by blending soul-baring vignettes with a healthy dose of humor and an even bigger serving of sarcasm.
