Losing It: And Gaining My Life Back One Pound at a Time by Valerie Bertinelli

We all knew and loved Valerie Bertinelli as the girl next door cutie, Barbara Cooper, in the hit TV show “One Day at a Time.” Now she is the divorced mother of a teenager and is conducting a very public — and already successful — campaign to lose weight as a spokesperson for Jenny Craig.

Losing It is Bertinelli’s frank motivational story — from her complicated family life to her struggles to maintain a healthy self-image while coping with celebrity, her tumultuous 20-year marriage to rock star Eddie Van Halen, and her difficulties with depression. She takes us behind the scenes in her acting career and marriage, recalling the stress and concerns of being a rock star’s wife, the joys of motherhood, her lifelong battle with weight, and her determination to let herself feel loved again.

With courage and candor, humor and emotion, Bertinelli shares her fears and insecurities in ways that will appeal to the hundreds of thousands of women who face these same issues every day.
