Author Bios:  

Creator and Author:  Christine Lakatos, the creator of MY DIVA DIET, is a mother of two daughters, an ACE Certified Fitness Trainer and has been an athlete since the young age of five.  Christine is a retired fitness and bodybuilding competitor including Ms. Fitness USA San Diego 1993, Ms. Fitness USA finalist 1990, Ms. San Luis Obispo 1989, an American Gladiator contestant and more. 

During her competition days, Christine competed with a body-fat percentage as low as 6% and now in her late forties maintains between 12 to 14% body fat year round. She finally sat down long enough to share her “secrets to fat loss and great health” in this 426-page book. 

Contributing Author:  Amber Garman has a passion for health, nutrition, and fitness.  As a young woman in a wheelchair, she particularly understands that learning about proper nutrition is fundamental to health and well-being.  She loves learning about all aspects of the health field, especially cooking, and is always continuing her education in this area.  Amber, also an avid exerciser, knows firsthand the value of what a good diet and an exercise program can do for you physically, emotionally, and mentally.   

After being paralyzed in a car accident, Amber soon realized her body no longer worked and functioned the same way it had before.  With no instruction manual coming with her injury, she began experimenting with all sorts of healthy ingredients, herbs, ways of cooking, and pairing foods.  She soon discovered that her body was functioning with ease, had a much higher level of energy, and her overall appearance was brighter and healthier looking.  The dramatic difference Amber saw and felt between her new diet and her old diet was and is a substantial lifestyle upgrade.

 In finding the beneficial results with changing her diet and adding a stretching and weight lifting program, Amber would like to make a special note to other handicapped and disabled women about MY Diva Diet:  if you are interested in losing weight and gaining health while being handicapped or disabled, this program will work for you.  Also, on the other side of the spectrum, are people who, like Amber, are trying to gain and maintain their weight.  MY Diva Diet will also work for you; you just get to eat more and maybe even more frequently.  Having a healthy diet and exercise program is a must for women who are handicapped and disabled- you will never go back to your old eating habits!


MY DIVA DIET:  A Woman's Last Diet Book–created by women (young and older)... JUST FOR WOMEN (of all ages)–those who want to lose a few pounds or 50+, get healthier, learn more about health and fitness, or experience a major transformation!  Whatever your goals are, MY DIVA DIET is the book for YOU!
