Walking My Way Back To Me...book release. Coming November 2014....

Walking My Way Back To Me is Joan Minnery’s very raw hauntingly honest story of living on the large side of life and the truth behind how she successfully transformed her once poisoned body from a sob story into an award winning Pulitzer.  Highly motivational and laid back; it’s also cheerful, dramatic, shocking, sad, funny and chock-full of Brantford residents and area mentions.  Joan’s inspirational journey embraces the necessary steps to get well and the celebrations of her very public fight for survival.  She holds nothing back and lays it all out there in an emotional trip down memory lane. Written between the lines unfolds the foundation of a lifelong deep personal struggle with obesity–as a child, teenager, young adult, mom, singer, performer, minor celebrity and ultimately a very ill person in mind and body. Her excessive overeating caused severe health issues leaving her with compromised pancreas, gallbladder and liver; along with acute vertigo and the onset of life altering Meniere’s disease.  There is refreshing brutal realism of what it took for her to get to 300 pounds and what it took for her to lose half of it. Joan overcame the odds and evened out the game of life in her favour!!!
