Written in the form of an extended blog, Fat Chance is a funny and honest account of Melanie Tait's unfolding journey through her fat life, before, during and after lap band surgery. It follows her struggles with being overweight, how she came to have the operation, what the operation feels like, her slow progress to thin and ultimately the challenge of living with a band. It also tells the stories of others who have had the band: those it's worked well for, other's where it hasn't, as well as inside information from doctors and health professionals.

Fat Chance : My Big Fat Gastric Banding Adventure
The Fat and I were always destined together, since way before my parents even considered procreating. My relationship with The Fat was written in the genes of my ancestors.
Melanie Tait has written a funny, honest, informative memoir about her relationship with her up again, down again weight, focusing on her decision to have lap band surgery as well as explaining when and why it works, and when and why it doesn't.
