But on the last day of school, her parents break the news: Maggie isn't going to Camp Rising Star. She's being shipped off to fat camp--and not just any fat camp.

Unbothered : the power of choosing joy / by Omarion,1984-author.;
As a boy band superstar, Omarion lived the classic life of fame and success in the spotlight. Yet today he is a grounded, spiritually engaged father and artist whose popularity continues to grow. In his stunning debut, he offers an intimate lens into his spiritual journey that has inspired so many to also nurture themselves. Organized by three pillars--Spiritual, Mental, and Physical--Unbothered shows how Omarion has centered his life around holistic wellness, detailing the practices he uses including breathing exercises, meditation, yoga, dancing, ancient mantras, and an overall embrace of positivity. Omarion reveals never before shared stories alongside the practices that keep him centered, even through public setbacks that have made headlines. Omarion is not interested in settling scores: these poignant stories are about grace and forgiveness--and about exercising emotional intelligence. Bringing together anecdotes, journal prompts, motivational quotes, mantras, breathing exercises, and black-and-white images that inspire him (like the enso circle from Zen Buddhism), this keepsake guide--in the vein of bestsellers such as It's All in Your Head, Hustle Harder, Hustle Smarter, and Good Vibes, Good Life--offers a new perspective and greater understanding of what it means to have a good life.

Take back the tray : revolutionizing food in hospitals, schools, and other institutions / by Maharaj, Joshna,author.;
Includes bibliographical references."Good food generally doesn't arrive on a tray: hospital food is famously ridiculed, chronic student hunger is deemed a rite of passage, and prison meals are considered part of the punishment. But Chef Joshna Maharaj knows that institutional kitchens have the ability to produce good, nourishing food, because she's been making it happen over the past 14 years. She's served meals to people who'd otherwise go hungry, baked fresh scones for maternity ward mothers, and dished out wholesome, scratch-made soups to stressed-out undergrads. She's determined to bring health, humanity, and hospitality back to institutional food while also building sustainability, supporting the local economy, and reinvigorating the work of frontline staff. Take Back the Tray is part manifesto, part memoir from the trenches, and a blueprint for reclaiming control from corporations and brutal bottom lines. Maharaj reconnects food with health, wellness, education, and rehabilitation in a way that serves people, not just budgets, and proves change is possible with honest, sustained commitment on all levels, from government right down to the person sorting the trash. The need is clear, the time is now, and this revolution is delicious."-- Provided by publisher.
