Where have I been? Gearing up for FITBLOGGIN!

I'm sorry for being MIA-but I've been SUPER busy getting ready for FITBLOGGIN! I can't believe I'll be in Portland, hugging all my favorite health, fitness and weightloss bloggers, in less than 48 hours.


I just wanted to say thank you to everyone who has expressed excitement over the discussion that Jennifer Sader (from Perfect in Our Imperfections) and I will be leading about "Getting Back from Gaining Back". Not going to Fitbloggin? No worries, there will be live bloggers at every session! Keep track of what we're up to at Fitbloggin.com.

I think this is me at my heaviest?

Jennifer wrote a terrific post this week about her ups and downs at the scale. I thought about writing one, but realized I'd pretty much detailed everything in "Fat Girl Follies"- a piece I wrote for Mamiverse last year. You can read my story (if you're interested) and see a bunch of "heavy" photos of me HERE. Sorry to make you click away, but I'm not sure I'm allowed to copy and paste it all for you here at NMB.

Who's ready for FITBLOGGIN?

I am so excited to finally be meeting some of you later this week-SEE YOU AT FITBLOGGIN! I've gotta go finish packing!

Wishing you love with extra cheese-
Nacho Mama

Walking Challenge! #walkwithmel

Hi everyone!

Sorry I haven't posted in TWENTY DAYS. I've been super busy, what with my Weight Watchers training (which is going well, but it is a LOT of training!) and this...

My daughter and her new COUSIN!

I have a new niece! Isn't she GORGEOUS? We are all pretty excited around here.

Anyway, with all this hubbub, it's been a bit challenging sticking to my plan. Oh I've been tracking everything and staying within my points, but my fitness has been subpar, at best. So when I saw my online friend Mel from The Daily Mel (who I can't WAIT to finally meet "IRL" at Fitbloggin) had issued a Summer Walking Challenge to walk a mile a day, I knew I couldn't pass it up. Want to join us? Check out Mel's challenge HERE.

Since I now wear an Activelink instead of a pedometer, I will be doing an indoor, 1 Mile walk every day with a walking video like this one, from Leslie Sansone:

Hope you'll join us! Are you taking on any health or fitness challenges to get ready for summer? Do tell!

Wishing you love with extra cheese-
