Getting Back on the Healthy Train

I have the jitters! Tomorrow I'm starting a diet and it's making me nervous. It isn't so much of a diet as it is healthy living, but for the kid who eats EVERYTHING in site, it's a diet. :) My friend Ashley is a nutrition/dieting genius and she has created a healthy living plan that works wonder. I know because last year I lost 50 pounds by following it! Then I promptly gained all of that weight back. No bueno. So it's summer time and I'm jumping back on the wagon. Mostly because I refuse to buy new pants. If you are interested you should check out her blog- A DAILY DOSE OF DIETING- it's great! It's got tips you can use to stay on track and things you can do to avoid pitfalls. I know that diets aren't everyone's "thing"; they aren't mine either. But this one works because really it's just a healthy lifestyle. I'm posting this picture of my previous before and after to A) serve as proof that this thing works and B) motivate me to stay the HELL away from chocolate cake. :) Wish me luck everybody! Here's to a happy, healthy, and helluva summer!

Good luck! I read her blog about the diet and it looks awesome. I have my excuse that I can't diet because I'm breastfeeding, but your post about it being healthy living makes me think that there aren't any excuses. You'll do awesome! Do they make sugar-free chocolate cake?:)
