Please to enjoy some Sunday motivation from my friend, Stephanie. Author of MY FORMERLY HOT LIFE: Dispatches from Just the Other Side of Young. THE BONFIRE OF MY VANITY OR HOW I LEARNED TO LOVE THE GYM Weekends, getting to the gym is always a struggle. Today, Sunday, is no exception. Back before I was an adult tween—no longer a young person, but definitely not old, either--I was pretty ... Continue Reading
Thoughts from Fitbloggin10.
(Kinda late, way too long & all in bullets because that's the way I feel like rollin') This was indeed my reaction to being at Fitbloggin. I adored meeting my peeps. Our community rocks. I'm woman enough to admit I was terrified a little apprehensive about my trips to BlogHer & Blissdom. The former I feared due to its size & the latter because I knew one woman attending (out ...

What are YOU capable of? (guest post)
Please to enjoy the amazing blogging wonder who is KAT. Did you know you are capable of more than you think? You are. I never used to think I was capable of much. I knew I was good in school and things like that, but never set many lofty goals for myself. I always viewed myself as no one special from nowhere special. I guess it was about the time I married my husband I began to realize ... Continue Reading
Finding my “fit” pregnancy (guest post).
Finding my “fit” pregnancy: reflections from a mom-to-be Exercise is a weighty issue for me. For a long time it was all about the hours I could log on the treadmill to burn those evil calories. “Working out” was a brutal regimen I orchestrated with the sole purpose of sculpting my body into precise size I thought would bring me confidence. I did finally wise up to the fact that my pursuit of ... Continue Reading
I love myself. part 3948 (giveaway post).

Pediatricians: are you listening? (part two)
This following is a repost from last July. I was reminded of it after I brought the Tornado to her four year check-up with a *new* pediatrician. Suffice it to say there was nary a mention of her size beyond compliments on how big and STRONG she'd become. The doctor even asked her to stand on one foot which allowed the Tornado to display her tree-pose prowess (something which delighted her ... Continue Reading
MizFit Exposed.
To be honest, when Michelle from eatingjourney emailed and asked me to join in her Exposed blogger movement I had absolutely no intention of doing my own Exposed post. It wasnt that I didnt think it was an amazing & powerful concept idea because I entirely did. When I worked as a counselor for college-aged women Id launch all of our groups with an exercise Id imagine many of you are ... Continue Reading

Today, People, is National Love Your Body Day (or, if you live in our domicile, it's simply Wednesday. We like to think every day is NLYBD up in herre). And Im here to shout from the proverbial rafters that I DO. I love my body. I love, appreciate, & take better care of it now at forty than I did at twenty. I love my body because it complied with my demands yesterday and did a ... Continue Reading
First Person Friday (Perricone No Foundation giveaway post).
Subtitle: A little bit o'flashback with a lot of a new treat. Once upon a time, back in the dark ages when MizFit was a little girl, her sister had a birthday party. Now MizFit remembers very little about this entire event except for an exchange which occurred between her mom & one of SisterFit’s friends immediately after the gifts had been unwrapped. MamaFit: I love the present you ... Continue Reading
