Fitness & Spice celebrated its first birthday over the weekend, you might have noticed the fireworks and all of the festivities nationwide.
That’s right, Fitness & Spice is a year old!
On July 5, 2009 Fitness & Spice was born a few minutes after I sat down at my computer and Googled: How to start a blog. The search engine popped up an article that in a nutshell said, if you want to start blog just start writing nobody’s reading anyway.
So I grabbed a cup of coffee and started to write.
And write.
And write, and write, and write. Well, you get the idea.
You know what I love most about blogging?
- I get to write about what I love: Fitness, food, and fashion…whenever I want
- I get to be the creative director, the author, the photographer, the editor, and the publisher every single day
- I get to brag about my family and friends. Speaking of #1, did you hear my Dad got another hole in one on Saturday?!
- I get to talk about amazing organizations like the American Heart Association and the Susan G. Komen Foundation
- I get to set goals that help keep me accountable
- I get to connect with people like YOU!
Thanks to all of you for reading, and reading, and reading…You really are #1!
Now I really must go to the gym, grab another cup of coffee, and get ready to begin the journey to the terrible terrific two’s!

July 6th 2010Good job, Joanna! Your blog is a must-read for me every day. I admire your discipline and quest for a healthy life. I love your sense of humor and, as a teacher, I give you the highest marks for your writing skills! I’m sorry to report that I still eat more chocolate chip cookies than kale chips, but you’ve got me thinking about it! Also, could your dad give me some golf tips? How does he do it?????
