This probably won't be very long, but a few weeks ago, South Beach Steve posted a challenge to highlight a blog on our own site. I never completed that challenge. I just couldn't find one that I really wanted to. Please don't get me wrong. I really do appreciate many blogs (see my list to the right). And there are more that I visit on a regular basis. That being said, I finally found one that I'd love to celebrate. It's called Shelli Belly. Shelli's blog is pretty inspiring, and it's only been a week! She's a Christian, and her determination is awesome. Over the last 3 years she's almost escaped a mountain of debt. And now she's putting that drive into escaping a mountain of weight. I wish her the best on her journey and will be praying for her. I hope you all go visit her blog and encourage her--it's scary to put yourself out there on the internet.
Here's my total for today. By the way, after reading Tyler's blog, I got inspired to try the Stairmaster. Yikes! So fun and hard. 5 minutes a day has been added to my routine. Thanks, Tyler.

1- 30 minute session on the Elliptical
1- 15 minute session on the Treadmill
1- 5 minute session on the Stairmaster
1- 3 mile walk
30 sit ups

Thanks for confirming that you're a Christian, Shelli. It was pretty clear to me, but I wanted to make sure (I didn't want you uncomfortable or anything). Although it seems like you are very opn with that...
