Other types of "AHA" moments?
Most of us have had THAT moment when we decide to change our lifestyles ... for GOOD. I find it very interesting that the "AHA" moments haven't stopped through this process (going on 8 years now). Some other ones (for me) have been things like finding out the importance of strength training, finding out that I CAN do so…

Leslie featured in MFP blog hellohealthy today!!!
Check it out on your main screen, over to the right. Or if you have MFP on facebook. Changing my profile picture in honor. I love it all, but she is the one who helped get me off the couch and kept me off. And I am forever grateful.

Thankful Tuesday
It is so motivating for me than to see how others have progressed and overcome. I've been going through a lot of old pictures lately for a project, and it makes me realize how different I am than before I made the decision to be healthier (over 7 years ago). This morning I started down that bad path of beating myself up…

Testimonials - YOUR story
I recently submitted a testimonial to WAH to hopefully appear on Leslie's upcoming infomercial. Whether or not I'm picked, it was really interesting to look back at the old photos and think about my journey. So I wanted to share it with you and ask that you share YOUR story, even if you're not "there" yet. Because we're…

Stomach pain from long distance running
Hello runners! Often I get stomach cramps within about an hour after running when I run more than 7 miles. I know the causes and really do try to stay hydrated with water/Gatorade. But I am not a thirsty runner and often fall short. And the stomach cramps stick around for a while. I've tried various remedies - lots of…

Keep going!!!!
Good morning! Just wanted to tell you folks that it is great to see your posts, positivity and progress. No matter how long you've been on your "journey," it is NOT an easy thing to press play every (or even most) days. It helps me to see your victories and struggles and your rebounds, and I really appreciate you taking…

A note on strength work...
As much as we all love the walking workouts, there really are great benefits to building muscle as well. The good news is that you don't have to lift big weights or go to the gym. Leslie has several workouts that incorporate the stretch band or dumbbells. The most recent one is Walk If Off in 30 Days, which has a great 30…

NEW JERSEY - call to station 101.5
You know who you are. Your call into the Dennis and Judy this morning was great and I want to send you a FR. Other pals - it was another wonderful MFP success story. The radio show topic was about the controversial facebook picture of the fit mom and her 3 kids. Our NJ pal talked about just doing it - her journey from…

Ladies - no panty lines, and comfortable!
When it comes to yoga pants, I'm not a big fan of panty lines, going without underwear, or the thong. But I hate lines the most. Once my husband, trying to be helpful, took a picture of the back of me in an unflattering combo, ugh. Since then, I have chosen to be uncomfortable in public and especially when teaching…

What do your kitchen counters say about you?
Did the items sitting out in your kitchen change when you started paying more attention to what you eat? If you started to cook more? Yes, to both, so olive oil and non-stick spray have a spot along with some favorite spices. The little fruit basket turned into two larger ones. There's a couple of pineapples ripening and a…

You love your new running shoes a little too much when ...
You carry them in the office because you don't want them to suffer in the hot car.

Another look at Leslie
One of my friends posted some new pictures of our "Walk Concert" with Leslie back in March. This photo cracked me up. That poor woman met hundreds of people yet seemed so genuinely interested in my story. I just love her, and I'm glad to be in a group with all of you who love her, too! Walk on! [/URL]

I MESSED UP!! (Subtitle: UNPLUGGED)
Let me just say this first. I am a reasonably intelligent person. I have a career, I take care of a home, family, etc. I even did ok in school. Last Saturday when the cable service went out, I was the one who spent AN HOUR on the phone with tech support, testing, resetting and unplugging and all that. Still had a problem…
