About Me:
I'm a mother, a daughter, and an entrepreneur. My children are my life, my passion is my business, and my business is helping people gain and maintain a healthy lifestyle.
Website:
http://www.weight1minute.com
What are your goals?
My goal is to help people achieve their weight management goals via sharing, learning, mentoring, and supporting each other. Overweight and obesity are a global problem with individual consequences.
What is your current exercise routine?
My exercise routine consists of fast walking and strength training.
What diets have you tried?
I don't believe in diets. I think diets are a short term solution, and, for the most part, don't work. I firmly believe making small changes in my lifestyle is the only way to see long term results.
What things do you want to do before you die?
Have time to relax and read, read, and then read some more.
What is your favorite book?
Choosing a favorite book is like choosing a favorite place to visit. It's not possible.

Hi Lisa, thanks for leaving a message. I'm still trying to figure out this whole blogging thing. Hopefully I can figure out how to balance writing blogs on my main one at tzuzan.wordpress.com and IA. Everyone is so friendly here!

Thanks Lisa. I came across Iowa Avenue while doing some research. Do you think it would be a good idea to start an Iowa Avenue introLEAGUE exercise competition on introPLAY?
