Here's my updated recommended blog list. It's a long one, but I haven't done it in three years so it was overdue!

sans-fear - my bestie, my partner in crime, and my twin for life. We're opposites, but we're the same. She lifts, eats Paleo, and loves baseball!

one-twenty-five - I doubt that there are any of you out there not following Liz, but if so here's your omg where have you been? - follow her! moment. I've been able to read Liz run marathons, lose weight, and travel the globe! Which makes me quite jelly. Plus she taught me the most important thing when I first started running, walking isn't failing!

andellasaid - I love Ella. I've been following her for forever and a day. Her blog is personal, witty, extremely well written with a dash of fitness! If you're looking for a great read and minimal reblogs, she's your gal. 

myquirkylife - Johana is all things cross fit, paleo, and bad assery!

smaller-n-smaller - Sarah's journey includes some major pounds lost, amazing recipes, and now a baby bump! I'm so excited to continue to follow her journey. She's on a bit of a hiatus, but I have no doubt that she'll be back post baby as a fit momma!

thisdietdiary - SO much yummy food comes from this lady!

chocolatecocoaaddict - Anyone chocolate obsessed is automatically a favorite.

bendoeslife - Ben needs no introduction, but I'll give him one anyways:  he lost 120 pounds, ran eight marathons, completed two Ironmans, and wrote a freaking book about it! :)

veggielife - Carrie is my veggie lover who re-makes a lot of her bigger clothes! She's so creative, I wish I could have done that! Maybe I should learn to sew first...

funeralformyfat - Psh, you guys all know Sharee. She is one classy broad and we just happen to be tummy tuck twinsies. 

runsforredvelvet - Stacy has a great running blog!

westcoastrunner - This lady is amazing. A runner, a mom, an inspiration!

nomorefatjokes - Two words to describe Lana = bad. ass. 

earningmyhappiness & resolutionrevolution90 - New blogs I'm following, but I like 'em so far!

smaller-n-smaller replied to your photoset: Remember my good friend Lara I was gushing over in…

What’s Soul Cycle for us non-New Yorkers?

Hmm how to describe it… it’s a spin studio, but it’s like *the* spin studio. I’ve never been, but the people who go there are hard core fanatics. Not about spinning, but about SOUL CYCLE. They’re borderline obsessed. Some call it a cult, even. Plus lots of celebrities go there, both in NY and now in the new LA locations.

I don’t even know how much a membership is there. Probably a salary. Definitely nothing I would normally pay for, but my friend went this weekend for the first time and thought I would enjoy it so she bought me a class to take which was so sweet! Plus I love that people want to buy me fitness-related things for my brithday. First shoes, now spinning!

I miss not weighing in everyday. I forgot how frustrated I get when my weight goes up and down from day to day.

Even though my weight isn’t going downwards how I would like, I am seeing a lot of NSV’s. Little muscle definition (arms) a little more strength, endurance, etc.

I think I will return to calorie counting. I seriously hate counting calories but obviously I’m eating to maintain rather than to lose.

I purchased and downloaded this new app that another tumblr uses (smaller-n-smaller) tactiohealth. I don’t think it’s worth the price (at all) because I don’t use it for all it’s worth (it’s pretty indepth) but it does recommend a calorie per meal/snack recommendation that I find helpful.

So I'm going to try following the intake recommendations and use MFP to track it. Let's see how this goes.

Wow

Isn't this about weight loss! Let's all stay positive...! Everyone needs to respect ALL opinions and get back to it! I want to hear about runs, workouts, and healthy eats. I don't want to hear all this arguing! Smaller-n-smaller save us!

Hey, All You Smaller-N-Smaller Fans...

So there is a poll at womenshealth.com entitled "blogs we love" looking for [and I quote] "the best fitness, health, weight loss, and lifestyle blogs on the web" and I feel smaller-n-smaller's blog certainly qualifies for this.

She has made leaps and bounds in her personal weightloss and fitness, motivated others to lose weight and better themselves in non-harmful ways. Not to mention endlessly researching nutrition and creating healthy (yet delicious) recipes (I don't even feel its necessary to mention that she's also a total badass). I would like to suggest that if you like Sarah's blog that you would consider nominating her for this.

Thanks for reading :) Oh and she doesn't know I've posted this but its only a matter of time (she see's all on Tumblr!)

Show some love for the Sarah!
