Size 16. Great. How did I end up here again? I counted my points, weighed my food, forced myself to run miles upon miles. What is wrong with me? Why can't I keep this weight off? Because it isn't about the points, the miles or even the food. This was a long and hard lesson for me, one that took years to learn. I started binging on chocolate cake frosting when I was eight, ...

Living deliberately (guest post).
If I could write a letter to the me of a year ago this is what I would say…. Dear self, As you stood there today, eyes locked on that mirror….looking at a stranger that you hadn’t really noticed before. A stranger that you have been trying to avoid seeing for years…. By avoiding mirrors and family photos, wearing baggy clothing in dark colors. By being everybody’s fat friend. By ... Continue Reading
Running: getting started.
Ive been a longtime lurker on Heather's blog. For some reason I never felt right commenting because I wasnt a runner.

Thankfully Heather didnt hold that against me & was willing to provide the newbie runner tips below. They ... Continue Reading
Endurance isnt only physical (guest post).
Please to enjoy Tricia. I was a long time lurker on her blog before I commented and subsequently lured her over to our neck of the woods & Im excited to have her here. I spent a large part of last week slathering lotion on my sunburned and peeling skin. I'd love to show you a visual at this point, but my husband assured me nobody would want to see a picture of it. So you'll just have ... Continue Reading

How I lost weight after pregnancy (guest post).
How I lost weight after pregnancy. The first thing to do is not to worry about your weight after pregnancy, you have a baby to look after and that is more than enough to think about for the time being! Wait until around six weeks to even think about losing weight. Pregnancy takes a lot out of your body and it needs time to recover. Many women still look like they are pregnant after birth but ...

Dreading a workout (guest post)
Please to welcome Jenn. She is a blogger, a trainer, and a woman I love for her HONESTY as I know we can all relate... Too much pressure. I’m having one of those weeks. A week where working out feels like such a chore… no… it feels like a big oppressive ogre who is breathing down my neck asking me when I’m going to workout, what I’m going to be doing when I workout, and am I going to make ...

MizFit note: You know how you *think* you will like someone and then you meet them in person and they EXCEED your expectations? That's Josie. I'd anticipated the kind & funny. I was blown away by her wisdom, strength & the way she was able to quietly command the attention of an entire room. I immediately pleaded with her to do another guest post.
