Lauren Fleishman deserves a round of applause for doing this.
It’s no cover of Glamour Magazine, but when my pics from the NY Fashion Week Oiselle Runway show were posted, a lot of people commented that it was pretty crazy to have my body change that much in three months. And yeah, it was a little crazy but in real life, people don’t walk around spray tanned and flexed. Out of the thousands of photos taken at the runway show after all that tanning and primping and posture-holding, one or two of them looked good. A lot of them looked pretty gnarly. Weird facial expressions, lumpy bits, zombie walks…but nobody would ever know… (X)

She cites Lady Gaga's comments about her recent Glamour cover photo as inspiration, and goes on to add that you should never take pictures that you see on the internet seriously. Kudos to you Lauren Fleishman. Read her fitness blog here.
I changed my eating habits at the end of September and I have days now where I feel like a million bucks!! Those sorts of days are becoming more frequent. I love to cook so I have a couple of cookbook recommendations: Well Fed, by Melissa Joulwan; Practical Paleo, by Diane Sanfilippo. They both have fabulous recipes as well as great strategies to make this approach manageable in a busy lifestyle. The latter book also does a fantastic job of explaining the details of the health benefits of eating this way, and specific 30 day starts to specifically address particular health concerns. I have a friend who's daughter has MS, and the daughter is the one who persuaded me to try this out. She looks fantastic, but more importantly, her health is so great that she has been able to forego implementing some of her meds for treating the MS. Her neurologists are amazed and still monitor her condition, but have no argument that favors the meds at this time. Powerful testimony indeed.
