At fourteen, Whitney Holcombe stepped onto the scale and saw 230 pounds. Struggling with her health, self-image, and painful experiences with peer ridicule, she decided she was ready to make a change—starting with a simple walk.
1 Year, 100 Pounds chronicles the year that followed as Whitney began changing her everyday habits around food, movement, and well-being. Through determination, setbacks, and plenty of learning along the way, she ultimately lost 100 pounds—but the number on the scale is only part of her story. Her journey also became one of growing confidence, resilience, and discovering a healthier relationship with herself.
Part memoir and part practical guide, Whitney shares the experiences and strategies that helped her along the way, including approachable ideas for making nutritious food choices, incorporating movement into everyday life, staying motivated, and navigating the emotional challenges that can accompany major personal change.
Candid and encouraging, 1 Year, 100 Pounds offers a firsthand account of one young woman’s experience and the lessons she learned about habits, perseverance, confidence, and creating meaningful change in her life.
