Dietitian Rebecca Scritchfield Joins DietsInReview.com

You may already know Carmen as the “Mom to the Screaming Masses,” a personal blog where she chronicles life with her six children, as well as her tremendous weight loss success story. After hearing an unkind comment from her child’s classmate, Carmen made a New Year’s resolution to “once and for all lose weight and get into better shape.” Her journey took 18 months, and she lost 80 pounds by introducing a small diet and lifestyle change each week. Today, Carmen, a Virgina Beach native, is a fit and healthy inspiration for other women and moms, as she continues to maintain her healthy lifestyle through martial arts and running.

Carmen has not only walked the walk, but she talks the talk in a friendly, approachable and realistic manner that moms and women can relate to.

You’ll find Carmen Staicer publishing each week in the DietsInReview.com Diet Column, sharing insight for other busy women to take time for themselves to regain their health and stop the diet roller coaster, as well as tips and tricks to ensure they are also able to help their families stay active and healthy.

Welcome, Carmen!
