She is an ex-emotional eater and mother of four, who has finally lost the weight she long yearned to be free of. In her new, sharp-edged body, she goes by Jacqueline. But leaving her old self behind proves harder than she ever imagined. And while she believes she should be happier, misery still chases her, and motherhood threatens to subsume what little is left of her.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJacqueline's only salve is her best friend Theresa, whose seemingly perfect life she desperately covets.
