One of the best things about being a contributing editor for BlogHer, is
being able to showcase other women bloggers. So today, I thought we
could take a look at some blogs about nutrition, weight loss, and
fitness.
In no particular order, here are eighteen health and fitness blogs
that I think you might like. I hope you enjoy checking them out as
much as I did.
I am a 40-something mother of 4 who has taken up a
challenge from my marathon-running sister. Do a triathlon with her and she will attend a scrapbooking weekend with me. Now I am on the road to train- run, bike, and swim my way back to a not-embarrassed-in-a-bathing-suit weight, and enjoying every minute of it.
A Merry Life: A Happy Girl's Healthy Living and Weight Loss Blog...
This site is a personal weight loss blog that focuses on
weight loss, nutrition, fitness, and other health related topics,
usually with a positive spin (I try). I started this site, and blogging
about weight in general, as added motivation to lose weight and live
healthier. I blog to stay accountable to my main goal: living a
healthier, happier, and more active life at whatever weight I happen to
be. It is my attempt to live better through the integration of healthy
habits into my lifestyle. I chose the name A Merry Life because that is
what I want to live and that is what exercise and healthy eating
provides me.
I was AMAZED when someone on "Yahoo Answers" wanted to
lose 85 pounds in 25 days, and an 11 year old girl wanted to "lose
weight quickly" before going back to school. Which made me decide to
start a weight loss blog that gives real info, even if people would
rather not hear it!
The Body Beautiful by Allegra...
As a woman and Fitness Professional who has a strong
passion for healthy living, I am even more passionate about connecting
the Mind, Body, and Spirit and creating strong linkages between the
three. I have found a way to connect all three entities into a program
called, “The Body Beautiful by Allegra”. Focusing on creating positive,
realistic, and healthy body images, by creating strong linkages between
the mind, body and spirit to help create a “whole” person, the program
encourages self-love and increases self-esteem.
I'm going to blog about it to share my knowledge, learn
a few new things, and hopefully some people will read it. Posts on
fitness, health, nutrition, and life in general will also be thrown in
here...most likely with a sarcastic flare.
So much of the fitness and health writing out there is
so dry you practically have to hydrate after you read it. I think it’s
time we injected some humor into the genre.
The Fit Bottomed Girls don't take anything too
seriously—including fitness. Here, two regular girls share their
trials, tribulations and adventures in staying fit to help you know
what's good and what's whack when it comes to working out.
Would you like upbeat inspirational advice about how
easy and fun it is to eat healthy food, lose weight, and stay in shape?
Then you will probably not like it here! One of the founding principles
of Cranky Fitness is: Healthy Living is a Pain in the Ass.
I started a wellness plan, the goals of which were to be
more active, exercise, eat healthier, and drink more water. I lost 20
pounds following this plan, but failed to make it a lifestyle change,
which was the ultimate goal. Now that I have graduated college, I feel
it is time to really push myself in the quest to lose weight, keep it
off, and get healthy. I want to make positive changes in my life that
will become habit. I want to be a healthier person. This blog will
chronicle my journey.
I created Raise Healthy Eaters to give moms like you
peace of mind when it comes to feeding your family. You no longer need
to search google and piece together information about what your kids
need to grow up healthy. Instead, come here first to get your needs met
– and ask your most burning nutrition questions.
