After the success of my first book, Losing It, I was anxious about how Finding It would be received - especially because it's a much more introspective and personal book. I was thrilled to read a very positive review from Publishers Weekly on the day Finding It came out...

 One of the biggest questions anyone faces when they lose weight or make a major life change is, “Now what?”
With my new book, Finding It, I’m doing my very best to answer that question for myself. My son Wolfie is growing up and falling in love, and let’s face it, getting your sex talk from Eddie Van Halen wasn’t recommended in any of the parenting books I read.
As my relationship with my boyfriend Tom has deepens, we face new challenges in blending our families. Being with him and learning about his faith, I’ve realized that I crave a deeper sense of spirituality. I have experienced days of inner peace and connectedness with a larger spirit – twice. Why not more often? What I’ve learned is God wants you to enjoy desserts – even when you’re on a diet.
Yes, dieting fixes one problem, but to maintain that weight loss, you have to work on everything else. Finding It is my version of “everything else!” My publisher Free Press has put together a busy schedule of signings and appearances for me. Please come out and see me!

 Valerie Bertinelli, then: bubbly sitcom star and America's Sweetheart turned tabloid headline and rock star wife. Now: actress, single working mother of teenage rock star, and weight-loss inspiration to millions.
We all knew and loved Valerie Bertinelli years ago when she was girl-next-door cutie Barbara Cooper in the hit TV show One Day at a Time, and more recently when she starred in numerous TV movies and co-starred in Touched by an Angel. From wholesome prime time in America's living rooms, Valerie moved to late nights with the hardest-partying band of the decadent eighties when she became, at twenty, wife to rock guitarist Eddie Van Halen. Losing It is Valerie's frank account of her life backstage and in the spotlight: the ups and downs of teen stardom, her complicated marriage to a brilliant, tormented musical genius, the joys of motherhood, and her very public struggle with her weight.
Surprising, uplifting, and empowering, Losing It chronicles Valerie's journey as she finds new love, raises a terrific kid, and motivates other women to take back their lives.
