Kim Barnouin

Kim Barnouin (Kimberly Ann Barnouin) was born on February 27th, 1969 and is currently 57 years old. Kim Barnouin was born in Rhode Island, USA. Barnouin attended university where she received a Bachelor's degree in Natural Health and a Master's degree in Holistic Nutrition.

Kim Barnouin was a high school drop out turned model, before she was a Skinny Bitch. She would only cross paths with a vegetable on her pizza. Now she is a New York Times bestselling author.

She felt that she was not ready for college, so she dropped out of the 11th grade. Shortly after, she got her GED, brushed community college and changed gears to modeling. Then at the age of 22, she moved to South Beach where the waves of Miami just left her feeling totally lost. She waited tables, modeled to make ends meet, and thought of herself as more of a helpless beach bum.

Kim questioned her unhealthy and unhappy self during these years. What changes could she make to her own lifestyle? Rather than turn to booze or something else much less attractive, Kim explored food. Kim, through better eating, began to mentally and physically feel better. Food heals, she found.

While she was a kid, she would always spit her veggies into a napkin. But then as a young adult, she could not get nearly enough of earth’s treats. It was during this transition that she became more obsessed with nutrition. She got her hands on just about every book she could and enrolled in this Bachelor’s program in Natural Health. She would not just stop there. This retired beach bum went on to get a Master’s in Holistic Nutrition. Learning about how food heals many illnesses and diseases and affects was something that she wanted to share with everybody.

Kim worked with Rory Freedman (vegan and longtime friend) to spread her word to the masses and wrote a book. They never thought Skinny Bitch would become a hit, let alone a bestseller for 2 years straight.

Skinny Bitch: A No-Nonsense, Tough-Love Guide for Savvy Girls Who Want to Stop Eating Crap and Start Looking Fabulous! isn’t a typical boring diet book. Instead, it is a tart-tongued, no holds-barred wakeup call to all the women looking to become thin. With blunt advice about how people are complete morons to think that the Atkins Diet will make you thin and how soda is liquid Satan, this is a rallying cry for all savvy women to begin looking radiant and eating healthy.

Unlike most diet books, it will actually make the reader laugh out loud with its smart mouthed and truthful revelations. Behind all of the attitude, though there is some solid guidance. This espouses a healthful lifestyle which promotes fruits, whole grains, and vegetables, encourages women to get more excited about feeling energized, clean, and pure.
