1 Stars Disappointing
I was really excited when I bought the new book by Rory Freedman and Kim Barnouin. I love their “Skinny Bitch” books, love their style and their way with words and hoped to get something similar with their new journal.
The title is really promising : “Skinny Bitchin’: A get off your ass guide to help you change your life, achieve your goals and rock your world” and I thought wow, can’t wait to get it.
But I was really disappointed when I finally got it. Ok, so I know that it’s supposed to be a journal but I still hoped for more than I got. Besides the intro on the first 3 pages you only get blank pages with quotes or tips by the authors on it and some free space to write down your thoughts. Ok, so the cover looks nice and I also like the quotes and tips but still for me it’s just not enough. I would have liked more text and some explanations and techniques to achieve my goals. I also miss the blunt Skinny Bitches style that made me a fan of the authors. Another negative point is that the book is really stiff so it’s not so easy to write on the pages without breaking up the book. And the small format makes it even harder to write down notes.
So all in all I have to say that I’m really disappointed by this journal and the authors because they did not deliver what the title promised and the book is also impractical to use. If you are looking for a book to achieve your goals (like the title promises) look somewhere else.

3 Stars Skinny Inspiration
“Skinny B*tchin’” is a little inspirational journal. There are helpful quotes, suggestions for exercise (including yoga) and weight loss. It promises to “help you change your life, achieve your goals and rock your world!” It’s not as negative as the original book it’s tied to, a major plus. The ladies have lightened up. No room for rants–and unfortunately,not enough room for the journaler either. Maybe it should’ve been one of those pocket-sized inspirational books instead of a journal. It’s nice to see Rory Freedman and Kim Barnounin using the power of positive thinking.
5 Stars These chicks are fly!
When I saw the title, i thought hmmmmmm, they are going to put me off of the prayer team at church. But on the contrary, this book was a wake up call and it has changed my life forever. Easy to use, very applicable ideas. It was like i had my best friend cheering me on, and giving me the real truth about the why and what i can do to really change my body.
5 Stars amazing!!
this journal does what it says! this is EXACTLY what i expected. it is perfect for going at your own pace and taking a step back and smiling and realize yourlife doesnt suck that bad! my friends say i should have been the “bitch” that wrote it. i bought it for my friend as well b/c i think she really needed the fire lit under her butt too! i recommend even if you dont want to journal b/c it makes you at least think about stuff.
