Steak and Spaghetti Squash

We are trying to continue the Jillian Michaels diet this week. It's it bathingsuit season and I am SO not ready. Our family vacation is now just 1-1/2 weeks away. We can't wait, relaxing by the pool all day long..... sounds like Heaven to me!!! (and just a little secret, when I am on vacation at the all inclusive Beaches Resort, I am gonna eat whatever I want.....yahoooooo!!!)

We do however just LOVE LOVE this Jillian Michaels cookbook and will be sharing a lot more recipes from here. And since we are going to try and eat more healthy this summer, I am sure there will be plenty of recipes to talk about.
