Has anyone read Khaliah Ali's book?

I just received it today from Amazon. I can't wait to start. Have any of you read it and what did you think?

For those of you that don't know this, Khaliah Ali is the daughter of Mohammed Ali and was recently a competitor on Dancing with the Stars. She was banded at her highest weight of 325. Anyway, I'm sure it will be a good read!

    Actually, Khaliah Ali is the daughter of Ali but she did not appear on Dancing with the Stars that was Layla Ali, another daughter of Ali.

    I've read it.

    I thought it spent too much time (more than 1/2 the book) focusing on her and her life/accomplishments and not enough time on what it was like having the surgery - if that makes sense.

    It talks about her growing up, her relationship with her father, her son, her jobs/accomplishments, her television interviews, etc. In there, once in a while, she will mention what it was like doing these things as a fat woman, but it's almost like an afterthought.

    The 2nd half is better - where she talks about her surgery, etc.
