Almost more important than all the books on what to eat and how to lose weight is a book about how to look like you've already done those things. Of course, it's important live a healthy lifestyle, but it's also nice to be able to look like you do. How Not To Look Fat is similar in concept to the TV shows that dispense various fashion advice, but it is a bit more direct, taking the position that the first step towards looking good is not looking, well, fat.

The book ($9.72 at Amazon) dispenses advice on how to make sure you're always looking your best, whether that involves picking more flattering clothes or sitting in a different posture (to give the impression of looking slimmer). The author, Danica Lo, is a former plus-size model, in addition to being a fashion and beauty writer, so her book reflects her personal experiences and knowledge that not everyone has to look like Nicole Richie in order to look fabulous (and not fat).
