I am the Eggland's Best EGG'vangelist and the below is a sponsored post. The idea to bring ya'll over to the Land of Twitter is all my own. (This will BREW while we chat.) I'm one *still* who loves to hang out on the Twitters. People criticize the platform and how it's changed as it's grown (that's a post for a different day), but I've fallen in love over there more times than I can ... Continue Reading
Four on a Friday (VEGAS edition)
Because really what says VEGAS more than TUTUS? By the time you read this Ill be happily on a plane, snuggled with my Kindle, and heading toward Las Vegas. I could do an entire series of posts about how much I adore flying. The abdication of control. The navigation resting on someone elses shoulders. The slice of (relative) silence in an otherwise harried world. The fact ... Continue Reading
Twitter how-to (misfit style).
Ive been yammering about it for ages and it's finally the week. I'm off to fitbloggin on Thursday & shall be tweeting like the proverbial mofo frequent updates. The thing is, whenever I travel & leave you with the Ill be on Twitter if you need me!, I invariably receive a flurry of emails about the odd social media experience which is Twitter. Why do you like it? Don't you find it ... Continue Reading
Social Media ANXIETY!
Please to enjoy another AT-REQUEST guest post. I read this on Cynthia's blog. Adored it. And asked to reprint it here. I’ve dealt with anxiety since I was a teenager. Debilitating panic attacks were common until I was 20 years old. With the help of a wonderful counselor and psychiatrist I learned new coping skills and adjusted my medications. It’s not uncommon for a person with Bipolar ...

Preview of coming MizFit’tractions
Welcome to 2011. I wanted to take a moment and welcome both of my all of my many new readers. Whether you found me by googling What fitness blogger will Ellen never have on her show? or stumbled here via a search for broken booty---welcome. I'm into myriad things, hang out at a few places, I've shed some pounds, but more than anything focus on being as present as I can & living my life ... Continue Reading
Ask me. Ask Experience Life magazine.
Im kinda shocked, amazed and pretty damn flattered happy to announce that Ive been invited to be a part of a First! Time! Twitter event for Experience Life magazine. (Yes it is a Twitter event, but there's still plenty of time to sign up for a Twitter account & if you dont fall completely twitter-in-love you need never use it again!) The chat will be hosted by the FITastic Senior Editor ... Continue Reading
Being more present in your life.
Recently this is less who I am & more whom I aspire to be. I had a conversation with a friend the other day where she relayed this (paraphrased) tidbit of wisdom: My child just celebrated XYZ birthday. I know had I not worked hard to be present with him when he was growing up this fact would make me sad. Since I was present and enjoyed those years Im not sad as he enters an older phase of ...

ShePosts and Dr Fitness & the Fat Guy.
Come hang out with me? First I'm chillin' with Dr Fitness & the Fat Guy. Two men who made the horrible *on air* mistake of suggesting I come and visit them as an in-studio guest. Alas, they had nary a clue how much I adore Atlanta & how frequently I choose not to notice when people are merely joking. (Do you think if I went I could extend the trip to include a walk-on part for ... Continue Reading
I’m off and…

Ive still nary a clue what my Disney Media Mixer duties entail but if you will be in Orlando PLEASE let me know! MizFit08 at yahoo dot com or @ me on Twitter. And thanks to ... Continue Reading
MizFit AKA RunzInTutu (video post).
Yes, People. It is another running post. Kind of. With one week left in my Princess half-marathon training Ive totally returned to this: (and yes. to the chagrin of all members of Lifetime Fitness Austin I DID lift in my tutu for one quick&dirrty iron session) It wasnt so much I gave up the weights for a specific-running/training reason---but more 'who has the time for all ...
