The journey...

Life is in the journey, not the destination, so do what you can and take it one day at a time. Go slow, do it right, and make your changes permanent — then help out others who are where you were.

taBLoiDs...


Yesterday I had the honor of being featured on Judi Finneran's online newsletter. If you have time, go check out her newsletter for helpful tools, insite, recommendations, recipes and encouragement...you can read my story too. *smile*

So how does this relate to my blog title? Don't mistake it for her website because her website ROCKS!

**I HAVE A HECKLER**

So I don’t know why I find this absolutely COMICAL, lol, but it was classic enough that I just needed to share with some friends and NOW my blog readers as well.

I got a sweet message from a lady yesterday in response to being featured in Judi's newsletter, she was asking if I know a particular person. Apparently he posted a response saying I didn’t lose my weight naturally and what Judi posted was “not true.” But this is the part that absolutely CRACKS ME UP - she told me that he said, he read in the TABLOIDS that I had my stomach stapled...

The sweet lady (doesn’t even know me mind you – but sweet because she trusted what she knew “of me” enough to defend me), she responded to him saying it was not true and he wrote back to her saying, It’s none of your business, I'm only stating what I READ.”

WOW….oooo….WOW.

Then she reported him to Facebook and apparently he was blocked!

THAT ABSOLUTELY MADE MY NIGHT WITH A GOOD LAUGH PONDERING HOW HE READ THAT ME, 24 YR OLD BANKER-CHICK FROM “WIZARD OF OZ” KANSAS, WAS FOUND IN THE TABLOIDS ABOUT A STAPLED STOMACH AND FABRICATED “WEIGHT LOSS STORY.”

EQUALLY FUNNY was my manager's response:

"That is great because I always look at the pictures on the tabloid while I wait to checkout. I never once saw you on the cover and this sounds like a cover story. I will have to start reading them while I’m in line. If find it I will buy it for you…. You know you were in the fitness magazine so maybe he got the story confused with someone else. You do resemble the Olson twins. You know being blonde and all."

Loved it enough that I thought I’d share with all of Y-O-U who’ve been there with me along the journey!

Hope it made your Friday too! Thanks again for supporting me…I mean through all my hidden surgeries and all!

ps. Let me know if any of you get a hold of that tabloid, I'd LOVE to read it. :)
