My friends and family can tell you that I love to wear tee shirts.
I created my own Workout Mommy tees at Zazzle and they turned out great! I’ll be wearing them at Blogher, so be sure to look for me.
I created a spare that I’m going to send to one lucky reader! In addition to the tee shirt, this contest also includes a $10 gift card to Starbucks! Free clothes and free food, what more can you ask for?
(It is a size large, but it is a fitted tee)
Enter to win by leaving a compliment in the comments section for another blogger. There is a lot of drama going around the blogosphere right now so here is your chance to say something nice about someone else. Please leave either the bloggers name or twitter ID.

The contest is open to US and Canada and the winner will be chosen at random at 9pm on Monday, July 27th.

MizFits last blog post..First Person Friday.
I love reading Annie’s blog http://www.phdinparenting.com/ – she says it so well, love her topics – she just rocks!
When I see WORKOUTMOMMY in my email list, I know inspiration for my day is on its way!!! Thank you thank you!!!!
I am running a similar challenge on my blog ~ too funny!
Anyway, I would like to mention Marlene. Her story is absolutely inspiring…You can read more about her here: http://marleneontherun.blogspot.com/2009/07/winner.html
I follow workout mommy because it reminds me that having kids is no excuse not to work out or the best excuse to do so. I also follow manic mommies because it all just gets so exhausting!
Have fun in Chicago – the best city!!
Man, I miss all the fun! Not going to BlogHer, my bloglife is dramz-free:) That said, there are so many other bloggers I’d love to compliment! MamaSweat.blogspot.com makes me feel like I’m not alone in my struggles. MizFitonline.com inspires me everyday to be a better person. Crankyfitness.com makes me giggle. And of course, I love my workoutmommy!

Trenches of Mommyhoods last blog post..Not Liking It (Yet)
Oh how sweet are you!? When I first read this, I was totally thinking up all these compliments for YOU because you are a rockin’ mommy that motivates me to live healthy. Thank you for the kind words, that just made my day! Sooo, I’ll mention another bloggy pal that always makes me laugh and she does a Friday feature of handmade shoppes which I love. She’s a sweety too so go check her out…Robin over at http://cinnamonandhoney.blogspot.com/

moonduster (Becky)s last blog post..Coming Soon! Chocolate That Won’t Hurt Your Waistline!
MizFit and Workout Mommy – You two are my BBFF ( Best Blogging Friends Forever). Thanks for being so supportive and so very cool.
FatFighterTVs last blog post..Fun Friday: Falling off the wagon
Oh this is fun–I don’t even need to win, I just like the idea of saying nice things about other women. And then I start reading the comments and I see Charlotte said something nice about me so I’m just having a grand ole time over here. Thanks for making this possible Lisa! I’m going to shout out to Lynne Marie at http://www.mindbodymama.com/. Her post today on raising a strong voiced girl made me weepy and empowered at the same time.
Kara from Mama Sweats last blog post..Kids Read: Lance in France
I give a shout out to my friend Laretha @ http://hulsefamilybeautiful.blogspot.com because she amazes me. Not only does she work full-time, mother of 4 beautiful children, she somehow manages to find time to work out too! This inspires me. (Ok, so she has to do it at zero-dark:thirty in the morning; but she gets it done!) She is beautiful inside and out. You should hear her testimony, it will bring tears to your eyes.
Jackies last blog post..My mom
My mother in law Marcia from Joy in the Moment is an amazing cook.
Playful Professionals last blog post..What Do Sopapillas and Pedicures Have In Common?
OK, I was going to write you a personal email this week, but since there’s a CONTEST, I’m going to go public with it. In case I win a t-shirt.
Dear Workoutmommy:
xo
You inspire me. You inspire me to get off my rear even on those days when I *really* don’t feel like getting off my rear because I am way too tired. But through other women’s stories, and your own, you remind me that there’s a good reason to take care of myself. And that we really can do it. But even more importantly than that, you inspire me to keep on keeping on. I know that this year has been harder for you than I can begin to imagine, and you keep on keeping on, and you’re honest and candid about it. And I am encouraged and inspired by you. Whether or not I win a t-shirt.
syds last blog post..loving summer
I love this idea so much I blogged about it. Here is who I complimented…
My friend Shauna (http://theutzfamily.blogspot.com/) is one of the most caring girls EVER. She had technical phone difficulties this week and wasn’t able to retrieve a message from me asking for her to watch my kids. She cried that she wasn’t able to help me. Seriously. She is one of the sweetest, most caring girls I know and I am so glad she is my friend.
My friend and step-mom to my big kids Jackie (http://loves2craft.blogspot.com/) loves my big kids as if they are her own. While being a blended family is challenging I am thankful she is on this journey with me because it makes my life so much easier.
My best friend Jennifer (http://themagicbrushinc.blogspot.com/) is an amazing wife, mother, neighbor and friend. There isn’t enough room to write all the amazing things she is and does. I will just say she is faithful to pray for me and loves me right where I am – which isn’t always easy.
I am a newbie here so the one nice thing I could say is that Lisa(WORKOUTMOMMY) is a wonderful person, she is always trying to see the positive in things when I talk to her.
Thank you for your positive outlook, it keeps me upbeat
my favorite blog to read is suburban turmoil. i think she has a good handle on being a mama with spirit…
melanies last blog post..a crash course in staying home with the kids all the live-long day
Diane at http://www.goodmourningglory.com is one of the most loving mothers and friends that I have ever met.
blueviolets last blog post..VGNO – I’m Dreaming
I follow several blogs, most of which deal with political issues — which is why I’m stoked about this one (since it deals with my other passion: fitness).
But the blogger I’d like to give props is Lisa Leonard. She’s a jewelry designer/artist — and I found her when I was searching for someone to create a personalized “dog tag” necklace with my sons’ names. Her pieces are fabulous — and I just ordered my 3rd custom one. But, even better, is that she’s got this really keen eye for beauty & a lovely outlook on parenting which I appreciate from reading her musings online. If you’re looking for a sweet thought or a great personalized piece of jewelry, here’s her site: http://www.lisaleonardonline.com/blog/.
This is a GREAT idea… thanks for paying it forward.
Single Girl over at getting-single.blogspot.com is one of the best writers. I love reading about her antics.
What a great idea! Joy from Joy the Baker (http://www.joythebaker.com/blog/) is so creative and clever, and she always shares the most wonderful recipes!
Katies last blog post..Yep, I got peed on.
I enjoy reading the MomStart blog and checking out what is going on over there. I love lots of blogs…and thanks for yours too…I’m enjoying the posts!
MizFit and Workout Mommy are great inspiration!
Twitter-Daniellelo
I enjoy following so many bloggers it’s hard to choose one. How about my top three?
In no particular order:
Postcards from the Mothership is entertaining, takes beautiful photos (she’s doing a 365 project this year) and she’s from my neck of the woods!
Jennifer from Conversion Diary always makes me think. She’s a wonderful writer and I’m amazed at how often God uses her to speak to me.
Stephanie from Metropolitan Mama (or Shannon as I hear she prefers to be called – just kidding…) hosts amazing giveaways, always has interesting topics and responds to comments! To top it all off, she has two of the cutest girls that sometimes show up on the website.
i would like to compliment Stephanie from Metropolitan Mama. I entered one of her contest and told her that I was training for my first 5k. I did not win, but she sent me a personal email back with some words of encouragement.
I have to say Stephanie from MetropolitanMama.net is one awesome lady. She has the best to offer and i am glad she offered your blog today in her tuesday tours. i am a fan of both your blogs now!
Keyomis last blog post..Home Made Salsa
I love Stephanie at Metropolitan Mama – she is always seems so happy with her life http://metropolitanmama.net/
Cool. I love the shirt. I’ll give a shout out to Carrie at http://www.MoneySavingMethods.com/ She’s so together. I couldn’t keep up with everything if I was her.
Too many people come to mind.
But tonight I’d especially like to compliment Nell of Casual Friday Everyday (http://casualfridayeveryday.com/). She is authentic, genuine, fun-loving, and totally sweet. And she loves her boys so fully.
I recently “met” Sherrie from http://goodkarmababy.blogspot.com/ and she is funny, smart and thoughtful. I hope to see her at BlogHer 2010!!
Thanks for this cute contest.
Blessed over at crazydogslife.blogspot.com is one of the most awesome people I know. She works full time plus from home while caring for her two children and her husband and still has time to listen to me blather on about unimportant things.
Jen–congrats, you are the winner! Please send me your address so I can get your prize to you.
