Are you here for the party?

Last year I missed out on The Ultimate Blog Party, a virtual party hosted by 5 Minutes For Mom specifically for women bloggers, who can participate by throwing their own blog party.  But this year, 2009, I am sure to participate.  Afterall, there are prizes to be won at this party!

If you are new here and/or have arrived through Janice and Susan’s Ultimate Blog Party 2009Welcome to my little corner of the party! I am grateful you are here.  I am Julie, the owner of The Health & Wellness Post.  And this is a strength training blog to help women (and men!) improve their health and lose weight.  Besides being a health blogger, I am also an independent distributor for the superjuice Vemma.

Here at The H&W Post, I rarely take time away from exercise to have a party, but I’m never above putting a little party into my exercise.  So before you move along with your blog party hopping, let’s join Chalene Johnson in a little hip hop dance.  But first, as requested by twins Janice and Susan, here are my top 3 party prize picks:

Other preferences:  Nos. 15, 19, and 21.   Now, let’s exercise … um, I mean party!

    Hopped over from the party to say Hi! I am also a huge fan of Jillian’s and I love that Hip Hop Hustle video.

    So excited to have found your blog. I do some training (most prenatal/postpartum) and I write a featured piece very week on wellness so you will be a great resource for me! I’m a big believer in weight training.

    Hope you will stop by and say hi. I have a pretty fab giveaway going on :)

    Happy Spring!!

    Hello! Poppin’ in from The Ultimate Blog Party…all the way from Queensland, Australia! G’Day! I hope you have time to visit my party soon.

    Ta!

    I want to invite you to the Mommie Daze Virtual Baby Shower that I am hosting May 15 to June 8. This is an international even and there are prizes! Stop by my blog for all the details.

    Hi, coming over from UBP. I’m trying to visit all the blogs. Right now, if I visit 149 per day in the next 7 days I’ll make it. I’m hoping for long nap times for the next 7 days! Anyway, it is really nice to meet you and your blog. I have a toddler learning blog myself where we do a lot of learning activities and have fun. Blogs are my favorite way to spend time. They’ve totally replaced magazines for me. So nice to meet you! Have a magical day!

    I’ll be coming back because I’m trying to lose weight!

    Phew… I think I need a nap after your party!!! The hip hop hustle might do me in.

    Just blog hopping in through the party link list.

    Thanks for hosting a blog party! I am currently working on weight loss and getting back to a healthy life style. I will have to check out your site in more detail after the party settles down. No matter how fit I get, I do not think I will ever be coordinated enough to keep up with hip hop cardio.

    OH, seeing your site takes me back to when I taught aerobics and LOVED it! Now I have a child and no time and a million injuries. But I DID compete in the 1999 NAC — most humbling experience ever!

  22. Pamela Kramer on March 30th, 2009 10:57 am

    Very impressed with your video! I had to tweet it. lol

    Congratulations! You are a prize winner. Stay tuned…
