LOS ANGELES (AP) - She never set out to become the maven of guilt-free, fun-food dieting, the go-to girl for people who want to have their cake - and cheeseburgers and chili fries - and eat them, too, without getting fat.
No, 10 years ago, Lisa Lillien says, she was just another 30-something LA Hungry Girl.
Someone who needed to drop 15 or 20 pounds (7 or 9kg) and would do so periodically by following an all-liquid diet or a one-meal-a-day diet or whatever other weight-loss regimen was in vogue.
Afterward, she'd return to her beloved jam-slathered bagels and french fries and gain it all back.
