Cindy Moore, a morbidly obese woman with serious self-esteem issues, has struggled to lose weight for years. Hours of exercise and a nutritious but inconsistent diet have only led to disappointment and depression. On the verge of giving up on everything, her life takes a drastic turn when she discovers a ‘miracle’ diet pill that allows her to lose weight without dieting or exercising.

The pills, however, come with disturbing side effects, including dangerous changes to her body, mind, and appetite. Her insatiable hunger for more—more success, more love, more food—brings her to the deepest depths of depravity.

Jon Athan, the author of Dead Body Disposal and Lovesick, mixes grotesque body horror and pure psychological terror to deliver a skin-crawling, stomach-churning experience.

Rewritten and re-edited from the ground up, the 2022 Author’s Enhanced Edition of this book is an uncut, extended version of the original story. It is the definitive Bad Appetites experience.

WARNING: This book contains graphic content. Listener discretion is advised.

That was probably the point of the story but she was insufferable from the beginning.

Good story but couldn’t stand the main character.

story was well written and narrated expertly. parts are definitely disgusting so not for the easily upset or those with a weak stomach. the very end was sort of a surprise for me but was great! would recommend to anyone that likes Jon's stories.

good base story builds to a great climax

The Was awesome, gruesome, read Cindy overweight and basically hates everyone Who is thinner than her. Shes' pretty narcissistic and i really didn't like her, although, I know that we're, not supposed to she take a flesh-eating diet pill

The story flowed well enough, but there were just some things that really stood out and or irritated me. Added to the fact that I just DON’T like when the bad guy wins in the end.

So as is true with SO many stories….why do characters seem deaf? They can’t here struggle in the other room. They can’t hear heavy footsteps. They also don’t have the inner awareness of checking to see if someone is behind them or if strangers I. Their apartment are doing untoward things.

Secondly, WHY is the police response time so slow in this book..even in really nice neighborhoods?

How is it that no one had noticed throughout all of Cynthia’s life that she was mentally ill? Psychotic: hearing and seeing things not there. Total body dysmorphia, paranoia?

Finally she kept saying (as an excuse to not go to the hospital), “what can they do except give me a feeding tube and examine me? We don’t even have a capsule sample.”
Well the hospital actually could have dialyzed her blood if it was believed that there was some systemic toxin along with antibiotics and other things, but she never even gave them a chance.

As I said, I guess this is just not my overall style of book of choice.

I guess this overall style just doesn’t appeal to me

Well, that had a little bit of gnarly on it.
The first part of the book I didn't care for. It just felt a bit unpolished, and I felt like I'd heard this story before. But it really kicked off after a bit and finished strong. Narration was ok and suited the main character.

eeeewwww!
