The Tippy Toe Diet

Changing to a healthier lifestyle...one eensy, teensy step at a time

Tuesday, November 17, 2009

Hello, Woman's Day!

The December 1st issue of Woman's Day magazine has a wee article mentioning three weight loss/fitness blogs and just who do you think was among the three? If you guessed The Tippy Toe Diet, you'd be correct! I'd heard about this but hadn't mentioned it because I hadn't seen it with my own four eyes. Today I saw it.

To be mentioned at all is quite flattering, but to be included with Roni and Shelley is beyond awesome as they're spectacular bloggers.

Big thanks to Woman's Day for the article. We all know the importance of the community aspect of blogging, and it's nice to think other folks who are struggling might give it a try. I only wish they hadn't titled the article, "Blogging Your Way Skinny." Given that the three blogs mentioned have a specific focus on becoming healthier (not skinny!), the title makes me cringe a little. Oh well, if it catches someone's attention and convinces them to give blogging a try, I guess it's worth a little suffering on my part. :) But to clarify to any Woman's Day readers checking in here: I'm not skinny and don't care to be, so if you see me on the street, don't get the wrong idea that I'm letting myself go. :D

(Disclosure: I don't have any affiliation with Woman's Day, although I do have a subscription to their magazine. I'm pretty sure they didn't make the connection. :))

That is very cool and very well deserved. You're fit and lovely! I guess WD hasn't caught on to how we fitness types disapprove of the epithet "skinny," like somebody's going to kick sand in our faces at the beach :)

I hadn't heard of Woman's Day Magazine before. Kinda tempted to pick up a copy just so I can see your name in print there!

HOLY CRAP! You are famous! Now we will have to fight with all the Women's Day readers for our comments! :-) Cammy, big congrats! You have any pull to get me to my goal of a reader model in a magazine. Still trying but no go still!

Do you know how they found you?

Cammy, I just wanted to say congratulations on the Woman's Day article, and thank you for your positive comments!

Big congrats on the coverage!

But, I didn't realize they were promoting "skinny." Ugh. Not exactly the right time to tap into women's insecurities as New Year's resolutions come a knockin'.

But kudos just the same!

Hi Cammy!

I did come across your page through the article! I think you look great- I am also looking to get healthy and not skinny. I've been making changes over the last few months and would like to lose 40-50lbs. Thanks for the inspiration, maybe blogging is something I'll try!

I picked up Women's Day in Geneva, Switzerland and the article led me to your site. I'm glad that I came.

Cammy - I saw you in the magazine and have been following since. I was looking for inspiration. I recently started a small blog myself and am amazed at how motivating it is. It seems like a whole new world where everyone has similar stories to mine. Thanks for sharing.
