The Liebster award is nominated to new bloggers, by other bloggers. It helps us support each other and virtually meet in our blogging community. Although I’ve had my blog up for about 5 years, I did’t really start focusing on it until January 2015. It took me 6 months to put together the website and I launched in June. So I’ve only been really dedicated and consistent with it for about 5 months now. I’m figuring it out as I go along and am realizing how it’s all about community and supporting each other, which is perfect for me because I love that!

Thank you for nominating me Denise and Sharleen!

Here are the Questions & Answers From Denise and Sharleen To Me…

Q:Where do you draw your inspiration for your blog?

A: I get inspiration from everywhere. Taking to friends, family, cookbooks, other blogs, Pinterest, and just going along my journey. For example, I created a video about how to create an image grid using Pagebuilder because I was searching for months for a solution and couldn’t find it anywhere on the web. I actually created it to delegate the task to my virtual assistant, but then it became content. I also love Pinterest. I’m on there every day. I see recipes I like and then re-create them as a Low Carb version that is easy and delicious like this Almond Crusted Calamari. I love to cook and I love health.

Q: What would be your #1 piece of advise for someone just starting out in blogging?

A: Create a Buyers persona so you know who you’re talking to. Especially if you want to monetize your blog. Figure out who you’re talking to. Be original, which is natural because you’re already unique. Plan. Having a plan is essential otherwise you’re just spinning your wheels. Don’t worry about being perfect, just do your best. Finally, be social and support others

Q: What is your most successful social media outlet for promoting your blog and why?

A: I think Facebook is at the moment but Pinterest is great too. I’ve found some great groups on FB and created some of my own that are helping to grow traffic and make these types of connections. I’m connecting with some great bloggers and we are having discussions around how we can collaborate and start helping each other grow. It’s really cool and exciting!

Q:Would you rather go camping or stay in a 5 star hotel?

A: I’ve been wanting to go camping for a while now and keep saying I’m going to go, but haven’t been camping since I lived in Hawaii in 1994. I’ve been staying in many 5 star hotels around the world since then, so I guess my long-winded answer would be 5 star hotel.

Q:Other than your computer, what would you say is the most important tool you use while creating your blog posts?

A: I would have to say my camera. I’m addicted to taking photos. I’m learning more everyday about how to use it and how to take great photos.

Q:What’s your favorite book?

A: That’s a tough one. I always only read non-fiction. I would say “Think And Grow Rich” had the biggest impact on my life. It was one of the first my Dad recommended to me to read and it changed my way of thinking about wealth. I’ve been meaning to read it again actually.

Q:Who is someone you really admire and why?

A: Another tough one. Oprah is really inspiring to me. I love how her mind works, her story of where she came from, her journey of what she overcame and how she has created, moved, touched, inspired and shared so much.

How To Lose Fast Weight After Baby

How To Lose Fast Weight After Baby |www.4hourbodygirl.com

How are you feeling right now? Are you at your perfect weight? Do you look in the mirror and love what you see? I hope so, but if not, let’s take a look at How To Lose Fast Weight After Baby, or maybe just in general. After I had my son, I was back to my pre body within a few months. Well, maybe I still have to work on my kegel exercises because that’s not working the same 1.5 years later!  Maybe that’s TMI. Oh well, LOL! Does anyone have the same problem and a solution besides kegels? I’d love to hear about it.

All I did was follow the 4-Hour Body Diet and I was strong and healthy as ever, in a VERY quick amount of time, plus it was enjoyable. The 4-Hour body Diet gets your metabolism going, no matter what it was like before. It’s healthy, and effective. Tim Ferriss spent 15+ years testing the safest, most effective ways to go about this based on the top Olympic Coaches, Body Builders, Doctors and Scientists. It just works!

Here we are at the beach in San Diego. You can see he’s about 6 mo. old in this photo, and I am back in tip top shape! The only exercise I did was really light yoga, maybe 1ce per week and carrying him. It’s all about healthy, slow carb food and my 1 cheat day per week where I indulge, oh and I do indulge! Here’s a link to what I ate one day on my cheat day….almost 4000 calories in one day. Yikes! This blog explains how that all works.
