I’ll create a month of workouts for you, start you off with a 30-minute phone consultation, and provide answers to all of your questions via email at any time.

I just started reading your blog, big fan! I am a Personal Trainer working in Chicago too. I was just wondering what club you work at. I am thinking about starting a fitness blog but not sure how to get started.
Hey Ashley! Thanks for the kind words! I used to work at Bally, but I switched to smaller studios where I could train rather than do sales (bleh). I started my blog to talk about fitness and health and body image, but when I actually got my ISSA cert, I found that my knowledge base had grown enough that I could write with some credibility! I found that fitness and body image were my strong suits so I rarely talk about nutrition — at least not as an expert! Where are you working? And email me about starting your blog — I’d love to chat more about it!
Hi Heather!
My name is Lauren Newman and I’m the founder and editor of the Chicago-based healthy living blog, NEWtrition. I absolutely love your blog and read it all the time for inspiration! I wanted to personally invite you an event I am hosting for National Eating Disorders Awareness Week. In honor of NEWtrition’s one-year anniversary, I have partnered with The National Eating Disorders Association (NEDA), a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting individuals and families affected by eating disorders, to throw an event at Gold Coast nightclub, Privet.
This event will take part in NEDA Awareness Week February 20-26, 2011. I wanted to bring national attention to the severity of eating disorders, which are mental illnesses with often, life-threatening physical consequences.
Here are the event details:
