Inch by Inch: Finding a Home within My Skin

'Inch by Inch' tells the story of one woman’s fifty-year struggle to feel at home within her skin. Childhood sexual abuse confined Monique to a body controlled by others.

After decades of trying to flee from herself, Monique tipped the scales at 200kg. She was grinding to a halt, immobilised by the labour of living. Faced with the prospect of life in a wheelchair, she chose to find her feet. Losing two-thirds of her weight – inch by inch – was hard work. But as she embraced the risks and costs of change, she gained momentum, reclaiming mobility, health, a lightness of being, joy.

Monique’s journey from morbid obesity to living health has also been a trek from self-hatred and shame, towards self-respect and freedom.
