I started this blog to document my own weight loss journey, but along the way, I caught the eye of a few other writers. Read on below to see the story of my weight loss from the perspective of others!

In My Own Words

My background is in journalism, and I’m lucky that this blog helped me open doors I might not have opened otherwise. In fact, these days, a good part of my “day job” (of working for myself) includes freelance writing.

    Hi

    I really like your website. I use it as one of the ways I help my clients to keep on going. I am a hypnotist and I have helped hundreds of men and women lose the weight and to stay healthy – to even like exercising! I was wondering if I could send you a few mp3’s to see if you like them and if they help you stay motivated.

    Again, thanks for your great posts – and I am thanking you in advanced for taking the time to give me a shout out.

    Your favorite Hypnotist,
    Kathy

    Hey Theodora,

    Been watching your blog for a bit (indirectly more. My wife is training for the Chicago Marathon, so you two have some similar interests. )

    I’m posting to see if you would check out a crowdfunding campaign I just launched. (ties in to your Social Media side too, also part of my wife’s passion.) We’ve built a smart water bottle that connects to your phone, to help with the important role staying hydrated plays for both health and fitness, and are trying to raise money for it.

    If you get a sec, check it out, and let me know what you think!

    2. What is your average email open rate? and
    3. How much is your solo ad?

    Thank You,
    Billy Fradys

    My name is Amanda and I am a fitness fanatic living in NYC as well! Ive worked in the online/affiliate marketing space over the last 5 years and recently have started working for Kayla Itsines. If you havent heard of her yet, you are going to love her as much as her 2.6M followers on Instagram do!

    She is an Aussie trainer who has a Bikini Body ebook that has literally changed millions of girls lives. She is such an inspiration and her workout program is amazing. She also does bootcamps tours all around the world and is actually doing one in Central Park this summer! Kayla is going to be featured on the cover of Self Magazine in May so keep an eye out 🙂

    So I am reaching out to you because I came across your blog and think it would be a perfect fit for her affiliate program. All you have to do is add a banner to your blog and if you use the guide can show your pictures or talk about your experience and you will earn 25% commission on every sale that goes through your links.

    I would love to work with you if you’re interested. Let me know what questions you have and if its something you want to try!

    Talk soon!
    Amanda

    Hi Theodora

    I love your philosophy – I can tell you have such a positive energy from the inside out and it’s even more beautiful that you are sharing and inspiring with women like us who feel the same. I’m keen to work together and with our proposal you will be able to gain some free advertising and exposure on this side of the world (Australia/New Zealand).

    Let me know if you’re interested.
