A friend (AC) sent me this book in a box of books. I'd say it's about on par for comic collection books.
One theme in this collection is Cathy's friend Andrea's pregnancy (in fact, the collection ends with the child's birth). Not as much of the collection dealt with weight loss or getting fit, as one might assume from the title. Cathy does lament that she's lost then regained the same weight several times. She also discusses vanity in a separate strip.
