Daddy Is Tired

After I “finished” the 30 Day Shred, I was fortunate enough to be invited to guest post on a regular basis at the Shredheads blog.  This was a huge deal for me because (a) I’m a big fan of Kristen’s writing at Motherhood Uncensored, and (b) it was an additional source of motivation for me to keep working out.  The Shredheads were the reason I  started working out, and are also the reason I continue working out!  So posting over there was pretty exciting for me.

Plus, it was my ticket to the big time!  Fame!  Fortune!  Groupies!

Well, almost.  One day one of my friends was asking me how I was working out, and I told her about the 30 Day Shred and that I had an online support group – I didn’t use the name though.  She said, “Oh, I think I heard something about that on DC Urban Moms…aren’t they the ‘Shredders’ or something like that?”  (there actually was a post about the Shredheads over there.)

I was pretty excited that one of my friends almost knew who I was.  Hey, give me a break, I have low self-esteem!

My next big break came in the form of an interview at Mom’s Who Blog.  It was fun, although I have no idea why I was so nervous about it.  It was a phone interview for goodness’ sake and the article was really focused on the Shredheads site.  But the article was neat and I got my picture on someone else’s blog so that was cool.

And now, now I’ve got my third shot at the big time.  See the little badge below?  It’s also over in the sidebar over there somewhere… —>

That’s right, baby…another guest post!  Today, I’m a “featured blogger” at Diets in Review, where I talk about how much fun it is to lose weight over and over.  Either that, or I talk about how important it is to have support when you’re losing weight and working out.  Or both.  Who the hell knows?  All I know is that I’m movin’ on up!  So do me a favor and click on over there so I look popular.

And since this is my ticket out of nowheresville, I’d like to take this opportunity to thank all of you – the little people – who made this all possible.  Thank you, thank you, thank you.  (but please come back and keep reading, because it’s nice to see that all 2 of you read my blog regularly!)

If you got here from Diets in Review, welcome!  You might want to see here for my weight loss journey, including an absolutely lovely before picture…
