About Me
- Nia
- To put it mildly, I have always been a bit food obsessed. I was raised in a family in which we planned vacations around where we were going to eat. My mother brought china, silver and cloth napkins to picnics. Food - good food - was everything. So, what is it like for a die-hard foodie to diet? Well, that is what this blog is about...the life of a dieting foodie. I'll probably also throw in some restaurant reviews and the odd recipe or two just to keep things interesting.
Why The Cats?
Some of you may be wondering why the picture of cats on a blog about food. Well, there are two reasons. The first is that the only things I am more obsessive about than food, are my cats. The second reason is that the cats are an eerie representation of my boyfriend and me. The one on the right, Nia (thus my pseudonym on this blog) is a little chubby, a little lazy and loves nothing more than to nap. The one on the left, Jeremy is my boyfriend - thin, angular, a little hyper and can eat whatever he wants without gaining a pound. While we always love him, we sometimes hate him for that.

I read that article, too. The findings aren't surprising, I guess. It seems that well-balanced is the key in order to stay healthy, which is fine by me. Because ain't nobody taking away my carbs. :)
