First of all, Happy Thanksgiving to you all!

Have you had your great family dinner? Have you spent some time to be thankful for everything you have?

Mothergoosemouse did.

And, she did it so beautifully that she deserves to be the HEALTHY BLOGGER THIS WEEK!

She said, “While I could probably name hundreds of reasons to be thankful this year, I’d like to focus on health.”

What a wise way to be thankful. We all know that without health, we wouldn’t be living a nice life. And, this lovely mother did the right thing, thankful for health.

What about you?

Wow, Christie! You sound so inspirational.

You seem to be determined to stick on your goal to be back in the 240’s. And, yes, I’m sure that all the weight watchers agree with your holiday advice and will follow it.

Therefore, you are awarded “THE HEALTHY BLOGGER THIS WEEK!” by Healhifica.com.

You deserve it, girl.

Congratulations!

Have you got your flu shot?

Sarah, the pink shoe, did. That makes her awarded the HEALTHY BLOGGER THIS WEEK!

Actually, that’s not the only reason. Her decision to get a cholesterol and a BP test and a vision screening. Even if the cholesterol machine was broken, her will was counted anyway.

So, congrats, Sarah. Fingers crossed for your cholesterol test.

Well, you’re taking it as soon as the machine is repaired, aren’t you?

I’m impressed by Lynne’s last two sentences at her blog written on the 19th of October:

If we’re going with this metaphor then I figure that I didn’t come this far only to turn around and go back to where I started. I want to see the view from the top of the mountain!

I believe those should be the words that any dieters must keep in mind.

Many dieters stop their effort and finally end up in frustration just because they find out that they go back to where they started. And, worse, they give up!

Glad to know that Lynne made the best decision and is committed to her goal.

And, that makes Lynne our HEALTHY BLOGGER THIS WEEK!

Not only she managed to be on track but she can also inspire others dieters and weight watchers!

Congrats, Lynne, you deserve it!

Have you ever thought to cut TV out of your life? I have. Yet, I haven’t had the chance to really do it.

And, just now, I found someone who did make the big decision. It seemed hard for her. Yet, it looked like that she was determined about it. She cut TV out of her life to free up more time for all of the other things she wanted to do.

She is Sandra, the Sunshine Scribe from Toronto, Canada.

For her great resolution, she is awarded HEALTHY BLOGGER THIS WEEK!

Why?

Because by cutting TV out, she doesn’t have to get hooked on the sofa, doing nothing but staring at the amazing box. Now, she can move a lot, which is good for her health.

I’m kind of inspired by her big giant step. While wishing her luck on the effort, I think, I hope you all can wish me luck, too, at least, to reduce the time for me to watch TV. Well, I’m not a TV freak, but I think it would be better to do something else than just watching TV.

What about you?

This week, the award goes to Rox in The City. She deserves the award because she seemed to manage passing her ‘Kicking Class’ very well and she is now about to start her Grading Class.

Not only that, she is soon gonna be able to do the proper push-up, not the girly one. And, she seems to be determined about it.

For you, push-up beginners, you need to look up to this lovely lady’s strong will. Yet, you can start with wall push-up. Then you can try bench push-up. If you think you’re strong enough, it might be time for you to try the non-girly one.

To be honest, I still can’t manage to do the proper push-up yet. Maybe I’m just easily satisfied. However, my muscles are all nicely built. Well, it shouldn’t stop me from trying to do the push-up properly, right?

So, let’s now, get the spirit of Rox in The City and be healthier!

Have a great weekend!

This week, the award goes to another healthy pregnant mother, Heather Edwards.

Previously she was concerned with preeclampsia and she had to get stuck on bed rest.

But now, thank God, she is a lot better.

She wrote:

my blood pressure is back to a healthy level, the cranberry pee is a thing of the past, preeclampsia is no longer any of a concern, and baby Gabe is in perfect position, head down and everything. 

Well, Heather, we all here wish you and the baby health and strength before, during and after the laboring process. Hope you can update us with the good news soon.

And, congratulations, you are our HEALTHY BLOGGER THIS WEEK!

This award is given to those who are healthy, willing to get healthy, in the process of getting healthy…

This time, I have to congratulate Shauna, a girl managing to lose 175.5 lbs. That’s not the only thing that made us here chose her to be the HEALTHY BLOGGER THIS WEEK! It’s also because she has made the decision to conquer her biggest fear: SWIMMING.

“My heart would race every minute of the lessons, wondering what they’d make us do next. I didn’t want to jump into the pool because I thought I’d make a bigger splash than my friends.”

That was she felt years ago. And now…

“…it’s high time to kiss these old hangups goodbye. I’ll be thirty next year, so it’s sad to still be clinging to the fears of a nine-year-old. I’ve had a good start by conquering my fears of running and cycling, but I know the biggest challenge is the pool.”

That’s what she feels.

Not everybody would do it. Many just let the fear stay in their heart. And, they tend not to do anything about it. Well, living with fear is unhealthy.

You need to face the fear and try to beat it. Shauna did. When will your turn be?
