‘Perfect, kind, hilarious and persuasive’ Lena Dunham‘You need this book. Your mum needs this book. Your best friend needs this book. Everyone needs a dose of Happy Fat!’ Julie Murphy ‘I am a fat person and I love my body. I feel lucky to be able to say that – it has taken a lot of work and a lot of time. I want to tell you what I have learned and how I got here.’
In Happy Fat, comedian Sofie Hagen shares how she removed fatphobic influences from her daily life and found self-acceptance in a world where judgement and discrimination are rife.
From shame and sex to airplane seats, love and getting stuck in public toilets, Sofie provides practical tips for readers – drawing wisdom from other Fat Liberation champions along the way.
Part memoir, part social commentary, Happy Fat is a funny, angry and impassioned look at how taking up space in a culture that is desperate to reduce you can be radical, emboldening and life-changing.

Hennes jargong blir lite jobbig i längden, men boken har definitivt ett berättigande, även för oss som inte är direkt ”feta”. Vi har alla våra komplex.

InspirerandeInformativSmartRoligTankeväckandeHjärtevärmandeThis book is really worth reading. Sofie Hagen has a lot of insight about what she is talking about it and she also interviews interesting people. I enjoyed listening to the audiobook and I have nothing negative to say. I recommend this book to women and girls of all body sizes as it is about body acceptance and being happy in one’s own skin. As Sofie points out everyone will feel better if they remind themselves that they were once beautiful children. At least, that’s a message that I get. Because there is a big industry out there feeding on our dissatisfaction and trying to convince us that a ”better” body is the solution.
