    About this audiobook

    DESCRIPTION:
    In 2006, Abby Rike lost the life she knew and loved when her husband and two young children were killed in a car accident. Devastated and numb, she shut down. For nearly three years she walked through life like a spectre, present in body only. As she descended, so did her health.
    Fortunately, Abby was not alone. She had loving parents, supportive friends, and a faith that continued to sustain her. Little by little she found the courage to return to life. Joining The Biggest Loser proved a catalyst for the physical and emotional changes she needed to make. In fact, against all odds Abby gained strength, courage, wisdom, and continued her steadfast relationship with God. Instead of anger, she found herself slowly but steadily healing. She lost a hundred pounds but gained hope.
    In this riveting book, Abby tells her story--from her joyous life before the accident to the unbearable pain that followed it and her eventual emergence as a woman reinvigorated by her faith in God. Today Abby's resilience and positivity are a testament to the power and importance of faith in the darkest hours.

      This book reads much like a diary. Almost stopped reading by chapter 7 & again at chapter 9. I got bogged down with all the letters & focus on UIL program. Favorite chapters were 10 -13 where Abby recounts her Biggest Loser journey. Disappointed there were no details of what she's doing now career-wise. Would've liked to read more about her involvement in speaking engagements & the Fresh Grounded Faith Organization. Love that she used this platform to witness her faith & reach out to others. She is truly inspiring & amazing.
