I need support....
I was on MFP for about a year and felt a really close connection to people, and a really strong community. Then I quit getting on as much because of job/school/life/etc. Anyway, I came back and admitted I messed up, but I feel like my sense of community is gone.

New job, new place, new dog, etc. etc.…

I'm going out of town for 10 days-ish, and I'm looking for people to do guest posts on my blog! If you're interested send me your story, pictures, and a link to your blog if you have one.

Need Some Help...Any takers?
So, I have this blog (www.thequestforfitness.com) and I'd really like to start reaching out to a bigger crowd.
