Loving my aging body (shopping days till 42 announcement)

by

(why YES. I am that goober who RUNS toward her birthday each year!) People, there are officially twenty days until I turn 42. And, as trite as it has become, the Great & Mighty Oprah didnt lie: our forties ROCK. Completely. Utterly. Piriformis booboo and all. Gone is the insecurity & uncertainty of my 20s. Vanished is the use of other people's yardstick to measure MY ... Continue Reading

Fit Stanley UPDATE! (pls. read if you want a visit)

by

(The little FitMan's first foray into adventure with the Austin Holy Rollers) Please to know I initially wrote this as a traditional blog post. Nary a bullet in sight and filled with rambling stories (why I named Fit Stella what I did), musings of love (so so excited you are all on board with this) and stunned admissions of how expensive this has all gotten (color copies, laminating, ...

The secrets to my weight-loss maintenance (Athleta gift card giveaway).

by

(MizBeerThruStraw to MizAlmostRunsLikeWind.) The longer I write about health & fitness the more I realize losing weight/getting healthy is, indeed, the easy part. Sure it's challenging to get started. Yes it can be daunting to stay on our fit-paths & not veer off onto Slacker Lane or Poptarts Place. Yet the number of emails I receive** from people (fingerquotes) at goal (unFQ) and ... Continue Reading

Sunday Supper is…

by

brought to you by the lovely peeps at ReadySetEat.com chosen by the frantic five year old for Father's Day all whipped together in the kitchen by a loving, generous, gluten-free noodle adding misfit. Please to imagine this one: Devouring her Asian Chicken Noodle Bowl whilst gazing lovingly at this one: While this one: sits back, relaxes & basks in the father/daughter ... Continue Reading

Fit Stanley is coming! Fit Stanley is coming!

by

how can my fave part *not* be that she colored outside the lines?!   Being that my first career centered around writing & children I've been a friend to Flat Stanley for a while now. Long before the Tornado entered the scene, Stanley's skinnyself could frequently be found in my purse *waiting* to emerge at a crazy!new!locale! so I could snap a photo & return him to his owner. It ... Continue Reading

Training for a Summer Race? Don’t Do This (guest post)

by

Dear MizFit readers, My name is Chelsea. I blog at AskFitnessCoach, and today I have a confession: I’m tired of hobbling toward my fitness goals. By hobbling, I don’t mean “moving slowly.” I mean actually limping. You see, when I leave the house to walk Greta, my dog, I take the hill instead of the stairs (it’s three paces closer). Overeager, I launch onto the slope at a funny angle and ... Continue Reading
