F*ck the Scale - Book by Samantha Sutherland

Are you constantly stepping on the scale and feeling weighed down? Good, cause I’ve got something to tell you: Throw out the f*cking scale, it’s lying to you! Now, in this raw and honest book, Sam bears it all when it comes to the day to day struggles of mental illness. Through the painful honesty of depression, anxiety, eating disorders and suicide attempts, she wrote this real life book while admitted to the Psych Ward. Sam not only helps to inspire others, but knows first-hand that being naked with mental illness can be overwhelming. Sharing secret information can be both courageous and make one feel vulnerable, in a world where mental health stigma greatly exists. The majority of women are covering up mental illness both physically and mentally. We're mothers. We're wives. We're bosses and colleagues. We’re sisters. It’s time to quit living a lie in quiet desperation, realize that the scale does not measure our self-worth and get f*cking naked with the truth.Sam is a working mother of two beautiful, powerful and strong girls and she is on a mission to help women everywhere. When her eating disorder began at the age of 13, she needed to have that shoulder to lean on. To have someone acknowledge her feelings. The #nakedtruth saved her life.Sam is using her story to help EMPOWER other women to speak their #nakedtruth, take back their power and to say ‘F*CK THE SCALE’.
