Are you up to the challenge? Koff has been named one of the Top 10 Registered Dieticians in the country by "Today's Dietician" Magazine, and "Best of LA's Nutritionists/Dieticians" by "Citysearch" three years running. With one successful book on digestive wellness already under her belt, Koff's latest book Mom Energy: A Simple Plan To Live Fully Charged was written in collaboration with celebrity trainer Kathy Kaehler. The book was released in September 2011 and a few lucky ladies (or gents) at The Studio (MDR) have a chance to win their own autographed copy!

The details Three winners will be awarded in total. The contest starts on Tuesday February 14th and ends Tuesday February 21st, 2012.

Once you have answered, Tweet @thestudiomdr or post to Facebook and let us know to "count you in."

If you select the right answer, you'll be notified and entered into a drawing for the prizes!

Two runners up will each win a copy of Ashley's book Mom Energy: A Simple Plan to Live Fully Charged
