OPERATION BEAUTIFUL

When Caitlin Boyle acted on an impulse to tape a note reading "YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL!" on a mirror in a public bathroom, she had no idea that she was launching a movement. Within days, women flooded her website with photographs of their own notes, posted on changing room mirrors, gym lockers, dieting books in the bookstore, diet shakes in supermarkets, and subway stations. OPERATION BEAUTIFUL collects the best photographs and stories from the site, including never-before-seen notes reserved for the book, and its Chicken Soup-style inspirational and uplifting tone will appeal to readers of all ages and stages of life.

Caitlin Boyce lives in Orlando, Florida. She has worked as a freelance writer, technical writer, and part-time blogger for seven years. Her daily food and fitness blog, HealthyTippingPoint.com, attracts more than 185,000 unique visitors and receives more than 240,000 page views a month, and the reach of the Operation Beautiful site, just launched in June 2009, is growing exponentially http://operationbeautiful.com/.
