Okay, I only follow a few weightloss blogs, so I'm not sure that I have six people to forward this on to. I will do my best.

Thank you, again, Larkspur! I know many people get and receive awards, but this was a little fun for me and I'm honored.

And my awards go to .....*drum roll please*....


A New Start To A New Me, Chris is one of my best friends and faithful weightloss partner who is still pressing on in her weightloss journey even though she's going through some stuff right now. So far she has lost 24.3 pounds. Her blog is private, so I'm sorry you will not be able to see it.

Fit to the Finish, When I read Diane's story it just clicked with me and where I was coming from. Plus, the fact that she has kept it off for 12 years showed me that it was indeed possible. We have very similar struggles and she has been a blessing as a support to me from pretty much the beginning of my weight loss journey.

Journey to the Healthier Side of Life, Pam inspires me with all that she accomplishes and how she never gives up pushing herself to do better.

Thirty Ways, Nancy has been very kind and supportive of me and my blog. I appreciate all her comments and am encouraged by the success stories she posts on her blog.

Sunflowers 'N Daisies ~~Finding My Inner Athlete , Anyone who gets up before 5:00 am to workout deserves and award. :)

Log My Loss, Steve has been very kind by leaving suportive comments on my blog. Also, it was his challenge that I decided to join. He keeps up with his blog and has some very good insights on different topics. The backgrounds of his videos are lovely also... ahh to live in the country!

So, I guess I managed to find six blogs. I don't expect you all to pass the awards on, but feel free to if you'd like. I know it can get overwhelming when too many of these go around.

  1. Congratulations on the award! Does this mean I'm supposed to answer the same questions too?

  2. Sunflower - I think you copy and paste this whole thing into your blog and then replace my answers with yours. Let me know if it works.

  5. Leah, thanks for the award. I have just answered a set of these, so I won't be doing it again, but I truly do appreciate it.

    I love the non-existent TV. That is my personal preference; however, my wife is not so gung-ho about that.

  6. Thank you, Leah! How sweet of you. I meant to tell you I'd mentioned you on my blog but got busy with work. I probably won't answer the Qs, though -- my FB page was hijacked a few weeks ago and I'm not revealing a lot of personal info these days. But I'll post the graphic.
