ANNOUNCING THE HEALTHY-DIET EXCLUSIVE COOKBOOK GIVEAWAY
**Rocco has hooked me up with 4 signed copies of Now Eat This! Diet to give away to my readers!!**
Going on a diet does not necessarily mean saying farewell to all of your favorite foods! Award-winning celebrity chef Rocco DiSpirito changed his life and his health-without giving up the foods he loves or the flavor. He has lost more than 20 pounds, participated in dozens of triathlons, and-after an inspirational role as a guest chef on The Biggest Loser-changed his own diet and the caloric content of classic dishes on a larger scale. In NOW EAT THIS! DIET, complete with a foreword by Dr. Mehmet Oz, DiSpirito offers readers a revolutionary 2-week program for dropping 10 pounds quickly, with little effort, no deprivation, and while still eating 6 meals a day and the dishes they crave, like mac & and ; cheese, meatloaf, BBQ pork chops, and chocolate malted milk shakes. The secret: Rocco’s unique meal plans and his 75 recipes for breakfast, lunch, dinner, dessert, and snack time, all with zero bad carbs, zero bad fats, zero sugar, and maximum flavor. Now readers can eat more and weigh less-it’s never been so easy!
Head to Amazon.com, Barnes And Noble, Books-A-Million,Borders, Hastings, Powell’s or Tower Records to get your copy and don’t worry about getting it messy in the kitchen cooking 6 meals a day because you can win a pristine hand signed copy direct from Rocco himself!
Whether you’re chosen as a lucky winner or not, Rocco shares exclusive healthy tips from his latest cookbook and recipes from his Twitter account so be sure to follow him @RoccoDiSpirito. Also, feel free to use the hashtag “#choose2lose” on Twitter if directing to the contest!

I've lived woth Crohn's disease for 17 yrs. As a result, I was never overweight, except when I had to take steroids. I recently had a permanent ostomy surgery and as a result finally feel healthy again. The down side is, I've gained a good amount of weight, post surgery. So my motivation is to look as good as I feel!

My motivations are: 1)even my fat clothes are getting tight 2)I'm having ridiculous stomach issues and I'm guessing my diet is at the heart of these problems 3)I'm going to be 36 this year and would like to be in much better shape to start my 36th year off right.

My BIGGEST motivation is showing my two daughters what it means to love and respect yourself! I am their #1 roll model and I do NOT want to diapoint them or give them wrong message of low self worth. So I want to get back to my pre-baby weight (they are 1 and 4 I'd say its time!)so make one day I will hear "I want to be just like you mommy!!" 🙂
Thank you and LOVE your Blog!!
My motivation is that I just want to be healthier. i guess it's purely selfish – I'm not doing it for anyone else (but when has that ever worked for me?) I am happier with myself when I’m at a healthier weight – it’s just so hard for me to STAY there, you know? I want to enjoy life more and part of that is having a better self-image and I can get that by losing some weight (again).

My motivation to lose weight is to have more energy.
Following you on Twitter.
My motivation(s) are: 1. An event coming up (my friend's wedding) 2. My clothes are starting to get tight 3. Summer is almost here and I can't hide in my sweatshirts anymore and 4. I have finished watching my favorite T.V. series (Sex and the City), so I don't have any more excuses to not exercise at night.
He's a nice guy, but I wouldn't do him. ha ha
My motivation for losing weight? I'm pretty lean already so this would really be for me to help cook better meals for my family.

My motivation is to get to my goal weight before I get pregnant 🙂
I want to lose weight for a few reasons:
1. To be healthier
2. To be able to keep up with my family better…we are moving to Africa and I want to be able to hike and rock climb (a little) and dance!
3. My hubby and a friend are going to pay money to a ministry I love if I reach my weigh loss goal.
4. To look better and have more clothing options.

TO FEEL BETTER!
I want to fit regular sized clothes and live longer. Even though it seems I feel good when I eat the unhealthy stuff I know I feel better, longer when I don’t.
Of course if I could know what moderation meant……..LOL
