Members and non-members alike have highlighted or written about Iowa Avenue in their blogs. So in the spirit sharing a healthy lifestyle, I’d like to reciprocate and highlight others who share the same passion.

At AlmostFit, motivation was the topic of yesterday’s blog post, and Metroknow talked about his children being the main motivating factor for wanting to gain a healthy lifestyle. He talks about his fear of following in his family’s footsteps of contracting diabetes because of their family history. On Tuesday, he posted the first of a seven part series on dining out, using the principles of eating food in moderation.

I know I’m going to be following his advice with anticipation!

Crabby McSlacker over at Cranky Fitness has featured Iowa Avenue a couple of times in her blog. Her sense of humor is keen as is her wit. Her stated reason for blogging is “ Because most health and fitness advice is too damn cheerful.”

I’m not sure about that…………………..:), but since she and I both love chocolate, who can argue?

In the spirit of humor, have you noticed the little guy who’s at the top of this blog entry and also featured on the left toolbar on our homepage? As soon as I saw him, I fell in love. (Oh yeah, he doesn’t talk back.) He’s so cute and just keeps walking. He doesn’t give up, turn around, go too fast, or quit, but continues on a steady pace.

I found this widget at Kathy Calculates: Weight Loss. Patty posted some wise words there yesterday:

“Losers quit when they’re tired. Winners quit when they’ve won.”

If I’ve missed your blog, don’t fret. As time goes by, we’ll be sharing other healthy lifestyle bloggers.

As I stated, before our methods may differ but our mission’s are the same, because,

After all, it’s about a healthy lifestyle!
