"If you&amp;#039;re just starting to read my blog for the first time, let me catch you up. I&amp;#039;m just a woman who needs to diet... but doesn&amp;#039;t really want to. It&amp;#039;s always a big inner contradiction for me because while I want to lose 15-20 pounds, I don&amp;#039;t really want to sacrifice the rest of my life at the same time. I love food, so eating lettuce all day just won&amp;#039;t work for me. Eating at restaurants and dinner parties are staples of my social life, making specific diets hard to stay on. But in the process, I&amp;#039;ve tried the Fat Smash with some success; eaten more cookies than I should admit; and thought about eating way too often. So this blog is really just a chronicle of my struggles with that contradiction. And how I manage to laugh at it all -- at myself especially -- as I try to navigate a life of constantly dieting...and constantly not dieting. ;) Here&amp;#039;s more about me.
