Wednesday Weigh In - Lose it by Labor Day


Ready or not, swimsuit season is upon us.  I don't know about you, but I am not (yet) in Esther Williams shape.  I selected this image because Esther here is not an anorexic, air-brushed model - but a healthy, vibrant, physically fit athlete - an inspiration then and now.

To spur us on in our weight loss/wellness efforts, the good folks at Forbes.com have provided 12 diet and exercise "tricks" (all of which are safe) with commentary from the American Council on Exercise, University of Wisconsin-La Crosse, and the American Dietetic Association.  So have a healthy helping of sound advice at:

See you at the beach!!

Love the picture. I'm not yet in Ester Williams shape either, but working on it! Thanks for the nice comments on my blog. The Quilt walk story is amazing! Claudia
