Thursday

An honor just to be nominated.

I was stunned and gratified earlier this week when I got the email at work from Sweet Baboo that I was nominated as one of the top 10 tri blogs for 2006. I didn't say anything about this earlier because I didn't want to shamelessly plug myself in the voting, but the contest is over and soon, I'll find out if I won some free Nuun products. Yay!

I started this whole thing in 2005, about 40 pounds ago when I made the decision to try to be healthier, and thought that perhaps I could share what I've learned/am learning with others along the way.

I'd like to say thank you not only to the people who voted for me, but for those of you who leave me all the encouraging comments and helpful suggestions from time to time. You guys ROCK!
