Blog tour: Diet Naked
May 28th, 2008 at 9:12 pm
The blog tour comes to an end today at its final destination, Mel’s Diet Naked blog where I answered some great questions from her readers. Mel used to be known as The Amazing Shrinking Mom, but I bet having a blog with the word “naked” in the title gets her more traffic
Thanks to […]

May 27th, 2008 at 11:51 pm
The next stop on the blog tour has been slightly delayed due to a flat tire on the tour bus. Translation: Both Melodee and I forgot to do the interview for Monday’s stop. It was a holiday weekend, so forgive us! Never fear, once we get this show back on the road I’ll post a […]

May 25th, 2008 at 9:02 pm
I was excited to go to the Bluegrass Festival of Books because I’d get to see the castle.
Yes, that’s a castle, in Kentucky. Readers in Europe are probably unimpressed, but here in America the natives were building teepees, not castles, so seeing turrets in a field is unusual. Seeing them nestled between horse farms is […]

I had to put on my thinking hat today when I answered some reader questions at Roni’s Weight Watchen page. Roni’s readers wanted to know about wardrobe changes as you’re slimming down, how to get motivated to go to the gym, and how to encourage friends. I hope they find my advice helpful.

Blog tour: The Skinny
May 22nd, 2008 at 1:09 pm
With the dreary Indiana weather we’ve been having, I’d love to take a trip down to Florida. However, time and money limitations being what they are, I’ll have to settle for visiting the South Florida Sun-Sentinel blog The Skinny instead. I answered a few questions about diet, exercise and what it’s like to be a […]

I got to chat with the lovely Kim this morning who is far too energetic for someone who’s up at 8am in the morning. Our interview appears on today’s edition of The Daily Special video show on Elastic Waist. We chatted about what life is like after writing a book among other things.

May 16th, 2008 at 1:58 pm
Stephanie Quilao at Back in Skinny Jeans is one of the bravest bloggers I know. She’s written about her struggles with bulmia, sexual assault and the recent break up of a long-term relationship with striking honesty. I was lucky enough to meet Stephanie at a blogging conference last fall and will get to see her […]
