    “With so many different diets circulating the mainstream right now, it’s hard to know which one is right for you. Personally, I’ve never been one to follow a strict diet plan, they just weren’t for me. However, there have been times I need to shape up, eat better, and lose weight, I just had to find the right solution for me. I’m naturally slim and petite, but I deal with a couple of different health issues that help me to stay on track. If I don’t eat clean and health most of the time, I’m going to be suffering the consequences afterwards, sometimes for days and up to a week! Before my health went downhill and before kids, I modeled for almost 10 years, but I ate everything. I never had to worry about gaining weight or even skin problems. Sounds great right, well now I realize I should have been watching what I ate back then and maybe my health would be a little different now. It was another time, over twenty years ago, the world was not the same and I certainly didn’t have all the information I needed at my fingertips like I do now. Now that know better, I definitely feel better! My background and experiences were what drew me to the book but I really believe it’s a great for anyone looking for new recipes and some healthy inspiration from some ladies who know what they’re talking about!”
