An intimate and darkly comic memoir of a woman who does a 180 with her body.When she was in her early forties, Frances Kuffel lost half her body weight. In Passing for Thin, Frances describes with unflinching honesty and a wickedly dark sense of humor her first fumbling introductions to her newly slender body, shining a light on the shared human experience of feeling uncomfortable in one�s own skin. She gradually moves from observer to player�enjoying for the first time flirting, exercising, and shopping�as she explores the terrain on the �Planet of Thin.� As Frances gradually comes to know�and love�the stranger in the mirror, she learns that her body does not define her, but enables her to become the woman she�s always wanted to be.
