What Is A “Diet”?

Just wanted to be clear that although the title of this blog site is "The Diet Divas," we do not intend for the word "diet" in this case to be used as a verb - something you do (e.g. I am dieting). "Diet" for our purposes is a noun - a thing (e.g. I am changing my diet).

We wanted to make sure that we are clear on this as particularly Weight Watchers (and really any diet program worth its salt) emphasizes that this is not a "diet" (verb), but rather a change of lifestyle.

Here’s a bit about us…

Deb Embraces The Challenge Deb is the thirtysomething older sister. She grew up in the suburbs of Philadelphia, but spent the last decade moving from sea to shining sea and across the Pond as well. After moving out of Manhattan and back to the Philly ‘burbs in 2005, she has watched her closet magically shrink as she has not-so-magically grown. Being tall, she hides the excessive overload well, but has decided that she no longer wants to. Beginning 2008 afresh, she has joined Weight Watchers and is determined to see herself back into all of the items in her wardrobe…and wishes to make some new additions as well!

Jo contemplates life without cake Jo is the twentysomething younger sister of the thirtysomething older sister. She also grew up in the suburbs of Philadelphia which contributed to her lifelong struggle with cheesy fried food. After compounding the issue with a move down South to Fried Food Mecca she is now living with her husband and 3 dogs in sunny, warm North Dakota. She is supporting her sis by watching her intake of all foods fried and has even managed to make a resolution to not only not eat bad things but to only eat good things. Bon Apetit!
