The Fabulous Fattie

Thank you everyone who gave your input on last weeks Scramble and Ramble.  We had great input and were introduced to some FABULOUS bloggers.  Please continue to send us your suggestions and Questions.  We love them!

Happy Halloween! I can hardly do a post on Halloween without talking about all of the temptation that Halloween has for me when I am working on getting healthy and fit.  This is usually the time of year that I just say to heck with it all and start the sweet comforting binge.  It usually lasts until January 1st when I feel so disappointed and start yet another diet.  Not this year my friends!  I am giving myself today and at that I am not going over board.  Not tomorrow, not yesterday and I promise not to sneak all of the chocolate out of my children's candy bags when they get home, I solemnly swear!  I have read some great blogs this week regarding Halloween, like MizFit and Fit To The Finish.  If you are thinking of just saying to heck with it today...go read those blog posts first. 

Spotlight Blog  I am so glad that we  found Kelly the author of Choosing Losing through mamaV over at We Are The Real Deal.  Her guest post on finding your Ideal Self is wonderful!  We would have never found Kelly without the help of mamaV.  There are so many wonderful bloggers out there and we need your help to find them all.  Please send us your suggestions.  We do a Spotlight blog every thursday and would love to have it be you or someone you know.  You can send us an email at fabfatties@aol.com with your suggestions.

Fabulous Ramble  I have to point out our friend Mary over at A Merry Life.  If you do not know her you need to get to know her.  She is really inspiring and wonderful.  I love her excitement and energy.  She is such a happy little bundle!  Now I don't know for sure if it is because she is all giddy about a certain someone or not.  You can decide for yourself.  Head on over to her blog and see what you think, hmm...

There is no secret that I really like Steve over at Log My Loss. Not only is he a handsome little devil he is full of inspiration and fab advice.  Every wednesday he has a word of the day.  I love them!  Who knew that you could take one little word and create so much inspiration?!  This week he had my most favorite word of the day ever, FUN.  I love having fun so of course it is my favorite word of the day.  Head on over to his blog to see what he has to say about having fun.

Q & A  Have you sent us your questions?  Make sure you do!  You can leave them in the comment section or email your question to us at fabfatties@aol.com Nothing is off limits and we love answering them for you.  We promise to recognize you and  link back to you unless you want to be all discrete

Now with that being said I have to answer my most favorite question I have EVER been asked! (yes this is for total self indulgence)  This question was from Barry you can check out his blog Barry Hughes and cheer him on.  He is fighting the weight loss battle as we all are.

Barry asked:  Shannon “How did you get so Fabulous?”  Do you actually have to work at it or does it come naturally? Seriously – I enjoy reading your posts and look forward to your reviews.

Shannon answered:  Oh Barry you are just exactly what every girl needs   Thank you so much for the fabulous compliment!  To answer your question, I would have to say...I just have fun.  When it is not fun anymore it is not worth it.  I love the blogoshpere and all that it has to offer.  I love meeting new people in real life and on here.  So everyone just needs to take Steve's advice and have FUN!

And that is a Saturday Scramble and Ramble wrap!

XO Shannon
