Blog Awards + Lower Price

I got an email from Jenn this morning informing me that I won the LUV Award. Thanks Jenn! Here are the rules:

3. Be sure to link to your nominees within your post.

4. Let them know that they have received this award by commenting on their blog.

5. Share the love and link to this post and to the person from whom you received the award.

My Luv Award Picks (in no particular order):

1. Kath Eats Real Food: Kath's blog is relatively new to me, but I've been hooked ever since I found it. I love her dedication to eating real food and taking time to have a nice meal. Her pictures are really nice too!

2. Giyen, Bacon is my enemy: Are you reading her blog? You should be! I envy the way she can write about her life in ways that make me laugh out loud. I also love her dedication to bacon.

3. 101 Reasons I Hate Being Fat!: She hits hits the nail on every single fat phobia or annoyance I've ever had. Her blog has been at times heartbreaking and entertaining and I look forward to continue reading her next 101 reasons.

4. MizFit: I've been blogging for well over two years now and thought I had a good handle on finding good blogs to keep adding to my list. She came out of nowhere a year ago and I've been reading daily ever since. Her videos are thought provoking, her arms are killer and I laugh every time she writes "up in herre".

5. Questions For Dessert: Krissie's heart really shines in her blog, and I can attest that she is as beautiful as her writing. She shares bits of her life that will make you nod along in agreement and I've always been addicted to her pictorial food journaling.

6. Fat Bridesmaid: I've been following FB since I started blogging and while I've never met her I have to say that this girl has sass. I love that she knows what she wants and who she is and makes no apologies for it. Her sense of humor is a little bit sarcastic and a little bit snarky and totally worth reading.

7. Roni's Weigh: oh goodness, I've been reading Roni's blog forever and I still call her blog "weight watchen". She lost 70 lbs and has been maintaining for for over two years now. Her blog posts are interesting and thought provoking, and her recipes are always delicious.

8. Scale Junkie: I just started reading her blog a couple of weeks ago, but I find myself checking in with her on a regular basis. A very good and inspiring read!

9. Stephany's Weight Journey: I've been reading Stephany's blog for about a year now and can really relate to her ups and downs. She has kept with her goals and isn't giving up!

10. Anti-Jared:  I just found Tony's blog a couple of weeks ago, but I love checking in to read what he has to say. Once you check out his blog you will be amazed with the amount of weight he has lost and even more awed in his reason for losing is.

So that's 10! This barely skims the top off the blogs that I read, but maybe you will find some that you haven't read before.

Thanks so much for the support of my Curvy Gals Workshop! I've gotten several emails from folks wanting to join, but not being able to pay for the $60 fee, which I totally understand. I want everyone to join in that wants to and because this is my first workshop I've lowered the price to $40 thats a little over $6.50 a week.  I will talk about the workshop more and more each week as we get closer to March 2nd and give more details about how each week will be outlined.

I got another email asking me if they can join in outside of the US and yes of course you can. This is an online class, no shipping required. Everyone is welcome!

So today is a snow day, it looks like we finally got some of the snow that everyone was talking about last week. Yesterday I started doing Tae Bo after breakfast and felt nauseous so I stopped. I'm disappointed in myself for exercising 15 minutes after eating, what was I thinking? And for not doing the rest later on in the day.

Today is strength training day so I am definantly going to the gym. I'm pleased with my food and weight loss (9 lbs!) which you can read about here and here.
