We were also super excited to be able to ask Alison some questions to help fans and readers get to know more about her. Check out our Q&A with Alison below:

1) Tell us 5 random facts about yourself your fans might not already know.

• I speak Spanish
• I knit
• I am totally a party planner at heart.
• I rarely do one thing at a time. If I’m watching TV, I also have my script in hand, or if I’m eating breakfast, I’m writing my blog at the same time… I wish I could claim it’s just ‘multi-tasking’ but really, it’s just that I am so used to being busy, that I can hardly sit still for a second, I always have to be occupied.
• My new book The Mommy Diet comes out December 28.

2) What’s the one food item you could never live without?
Oatmeal

3) What do you love most about working with The Biggest Loser?
Being a part of such an incredible, life changing journey. It’s so inspiring to see every person have all those successes on the scale. It’s amazing.

4) What’s your favorite way to keep in shape?
I like to hike with my dog Winky and spin (indoor cycling). Spinning’s so intense, and challenging. I love it.

5) Do you have a favorite food memory, maybe something you’ve experienced since becoming a mother?
Back to the oatmeal answer – that may seem odd, but my daughter loves the way I make oatmeal. She doesn’t like it when anyone else makes it, and so I have to make an extra big helping, because if I’m not careful she will eat my share! It’s a fun mother-daughter bonding thing, that every morning we have oatmeal together. I love it.
