I'm so Julie

The Books
The South Beach Diet SuperCharged. First edition, 2008. Arthur Agatston, MD, with Joseph Signorile, PhD. Dr. Agatston became my hero when he introduced me to the concepts of "good carbohydrates" and "good fats".

Julie & Julia. Paperback movie tie-in edition, July 2009. Julie Powell catapulted to the top of my list of heroes after I saw the movie, which inspired me to mount my own project of dedication and diligence to enrich my life and live to the fullest.

The Contender
Busy stay-at-home mom by day, diet book junkie by night. Too old for supersized, too young for disease, too overweight to do nothing, I am up for a challenge. Risking my friendship with the staff at Bagel, Bagel, I am signing on for a daunting assignment. Picking just one diet, uh hum, I mean healthy eat plan and sticking to it. 365 days. 1095 healthy meals and 730 healthy snacks.
One serial dieter and no idea how to cook. How far it will go is probably not tricky enough for a suspensful cliffhanger...
