5 factor diet

Has anyone heard of the 5 factor diet?  I was wondering what this diet is all about.  It was mentioned in SELF magazine. 

NEED SOME MOTIVATION

I need to be motivated.  I am a stay at home mom with two beautiful little girls.  I went back to work after having my second daughter and immediately lost 20 pounds.  I did great.  I ate healthy, walked on my lunchbreak, and I didn’t snack because I was too busy working.

Skip ahead 5 months.  I quit my job because daycare was too expensive for 2 children.  So now, I am bored at home, I found the 20 lbs I lost, and I am constantly snacking.  I rarely work out because I feel like I don’t have the time.  I am on my way to gain more weight instead of lose.  I really need to lose the weight.  I recently  found out my cholesterol is high.  I just don’t feel healthy.  I don’t really know what the definition of binge eating is, but I know I have a problem.  I often eat when I’m not hungry.  I am addicted to peanut butter.  I just need some motivation and support.  If anyone has any tips on how to fit in exercise with a 3 year old and an 8 month old, I would appreciate it.  Sorry if it seems like I’m whining but I’m just feeling miserable today.

Well, I am new to buddyslim.  I am fed up with my overeating.  I have been chowing down on my child’s easter candy.  I have put on a lot of extra weight since having my two children.  I need some advice on finding time to exercise.  My children are 3 and 8 months old and I am a stay at home mom.  I would like some healthy recipes that are yummy.  I really just need help getting motivated. Any advice or comments are welcome. THANKS!
