Taylor was publicly ridiculed for putting on weight in her 40s, but by her 55th birthday was en bonne forme and more glamorous than ever, having “dropped from 180-odd to 122 pounds.” Her 1987 book, Elizabeth Takes Off, tells the story of how she did it and, more importantly, of her extraordinary life.

The real "meat" of this memoir/diet book is the first half, and Liz's discussion of her childhood, many loves and marriages, and many disappointments and emotional issues. These chapters are meant to give the reader/future dieter an understanding of Elizabeth's struggles around her weight and how she dealt successfully with them, *and you can too!*.
