The December issue of First for Women came out!  Woo Hoo!  This was the magazine article that I had the photo shoot for back in October.  I was really curious about which outfit was chosen.

This is it!

I think it was a good choice for the magazine, even though I liked the little jacket the best.  Again, these pants were so amazing.

The article was a little smaller than they normally are, but that’s okay because the best thing is they mentioned my blog!  Finally!

This issue was all about phyto chemicals or natural stuff like that, so they did say a kind of strange thing in the article that I noticed changes in my face after a month.  I really don’t remember saying anything like that, but I did mention my face was more clear when I started reducing dairy in my diet and eating more coconut oil. Oh and the weight is not right.  I weigh more than 142 in that photo, although I don’t know the exact number because my scale doesn’t have numbers.

The other thing that was funny was that my 40-mile weekend bike rides turned into riding 40 miles a day. You all know I bike a lot, but 40 miles a day is a bit much even for me LOL!

John  mentioned that the whole magazine was about food.  It’s true.  Of course, it is a holiday issue, so there will definitely be food, but I loved how the first part of the magazine was all health, weight loss, nutrition, and then a few pages later is this:

All in all, I was really pleased with the photo and the article. The thing I was worried about the most was the photo.  It is really hard sometimes to put yourself out there, knowing that criticism and judgement goes along with that.  Right or wrong, it happens.  I really did enjoy the photo shoot as the group of ladies made me feel wonderful and relaxed, and I think it showed in the picture.
