My editor, Justin Schwartz, plus Sari Kamin, Brianna Yamashita, Jacqueline Quirk, Marina Padakis Lowry, Tai Blanche, designer Suet Chong, and the entire HMH team. This has been such a great experience. Thank you for listening to my vision and trusting me to take it where I wanted. You made me a better writer and developer by pushing my boundaries, just a bit, and the culmination of growth is shown here on these pages. I couldnt have asked for a better team of people. Justin, I just adore you, I hope you know.

My photography teamGhazalle Badiozamani, Monica Pierini, Jenna Tedesco, Bridget Kenny, Leila Clifford, and Toby Klinger.

Every single photo in this book is magnificent, and it was an honor to watch you ladies work. Thank you for sharing your talents. You elevated this project to another level.

Ashley Wright Photography thank you for answering my panicked call and editing - photo 6

Ashley Wright Photography, thank you for answering my panicked call and editing my family photos so they have that extra touch of brilliance. You are a brilliant photographer but an even better friend. If youre in DFW, look her up!

Lisa Rovick, for testing every. single. recipe. Thank you for the countless hours on the phone and all of your advice and expertise. These recipes are beyond because of you. I loved every second of working side by side in the kitchen with you, even if it was across the country.

My agent, Andrea Barzvi, at Empire Literary, you keep me sane. Thank you for sharing your wisdom, counsel, and for believing in me before most.

The Instant Loss Community, I wouldnt be here if it wasnt for you. You saw something in me before I ever saw it in myself. Not every girl has 150,000 friends that she gets to talk to every day! Im so proud of the community weve built, designed to encourage and elevate others. Im so grateful for how yall really uplifted me. Thank you for contributing to the conversation. We are helping so many together, and I pray that we get to do so for a very long time.

Jesus, my story is full of broken pieces that You continuously help me put back together in the most meaningful ways. Thank you for being the grace that saved my life.

I asked my husband for a stovetop pressure cooker and he surprised me with this newfangled fancy machine with a million buttons instead. I was frustrated. I didnt want some technowiz gizmo gadget with a manual as long as my arm. I had two toddlers and another baby on the way. I didnt need another thing to figure out. I just wanted a regular old pressure cooker. The Instant Pot was no regular pressure cooker.

It sat in a box in our living room for weeks. I was intimidated and a bit scared I was going to blow up the house, so I let it sit there. Eventually it became part of the furniture. Couch, coffee table, arm chair, Instant Pot. One day, my husband asked me if he should return it. He got my guilty conscience all stirred up, and I finally took it out of the box.

I spent an entire morning reading the manual cover to cover. I figured Id try my hand at making rice. Rice is cheapif I mess it up, what have I lost?

In about half an hour, we had perfectly cooked rice. I didnt have to babysit it on the stove, I just threw all the ingredients in the pot, folded a couple loads of laundry, changed a diaper, and presto! Rice!

My kids asked for seconds. I was sold.

Ive had my pot for three years. Since then, Ive had three more pregnancies. My weight has yo-yoed along with my willpower.

In January 2017, I was sick and tired of feeling sick and tired. I kicked processed food and I stopped eating fast food. I was confident that, with the help of my pressure cooker, my family could successfully stop eating out and start eating most of our meals at home.

Well, were doing it! I havent asked my husband to bring home dinner at all this year! With the exception of a couple date nights, we havent eaten anywhere but home for the last three months. As an awesome side effect, Ive lost 41 pounds!

So, to my Instant Pot, thank you. I really love you and I think everyone should have you.
