Skinny Bitch Bun in the Oven

A Gutsy Guide to Becoming One Hot and Healthy Mother!

By: Rory Freedman

Narrated by: Gwendoline Yeo

Skinny Bitch created a movement when it exposed the horrors of the food industry and inspired people across the world to stop eating “crap." The authors followed that New York Times bestseller with a cookbook. And the "bitches" are back yet again—this time with advice to pregnant women. And just because their audience is in a "delicate condition" doesn't mean they deliver a gentle message. With the same sassy tone that made Skinny Bitch laugh-out-loud funny, Rory Freedman and Kim Barnouin give expectant moms the information they need to use their heads and maintain a healthy pregnancy.

Harsh but truly vital info

I wrongly purchase this audio book thinking it was "skinny bitch" for *not*pregnant ppl (audible website fault...and was thinking to ask for refund coz I thought this book was useless to me since I'm single and not pregnant.
But after hearing a few chapters, I truly think it contains very vital information and you can tell that the authors did a lot of research to build up this book.
I respect the effort of the authors and their sincere intentions not to present just another book for pregnancy nutrition and cash some money, but to educate all pregnant and not pregnant ppl even if the contents or the presentation is a little bit rude, but it's like someone you know is advising you from the heart.

The only thing I didn't like that much is chapter 6 and 7 of the audiobook, where they describe too into detail how animals are slaughter, it made me nauseous just by hearing... well, that's also the awful truth of the meat industry, for why I decided to be vegetarian from now on.

AKA How to be a Vegan

I was skeptical at first because of the title of this book and some of the language can get annoying. Like they are trying too hard to be edgy. This book reminded me a little of In Defense of Food but I have to say that after reading it I want to be more of a vegetarian and think twice when I eat beef. They are a bit graphic when it comes to the treatment of animals but it did influence me to want to eat less animal products. I also liked how they teach you other ways to get all of the vitamins you need and to be very healthy.

Overall a good book but I didn't learn so much about pregnancy yet eating healthy food does relate.

Truth

Listening to this book made me feel like I was in church. I was like, "Amen" every other sentence. This is a very truthful book with science and facts.

Advice with a no nonsense attitude

This book is great for telling it like it is. If you want to know about how to become vegan or just eat better for you and baby this book tells you straight to the point with no reading between the lines kinda stuff.

some good info.

some good info, but a lot if info that wasn't relevant to the purpose for which I got the book. all interesting but I would have preferred shorter and more on topic.
