I grouped the following together because they had similar questions:
- Leslie "What were some of the sessions? Could you pick which you attended? Did you meet Roni?"Yes, I met Roni. She was so sweet, and she remembered me because I was a whiny brat trying to come. I was flattered.
KatDoesDiets "I want to hear about what you learned in the sessions? What were the most valuable things to you?" I liked the one about getting published best because I want to write. I really appreciated all of them though.
Kyle and Darci said..."What were some of the most informative things you learned in the sessions?"
Here are all of my notes from the 4 breakout sessions and keynote speaker. Completely unedited-sorry. My Facebook Page They are in the notes.
Workout Mommy great pictures---and why didn't I get the chance to meet you? Your flattery gives you away. I am a shy dork sometimes. You were so popular... Really, I looked over and even headed your way a couple of times but you were occupied. I was the tall Giantess wearing a shirt the color of my avatar that laughed like a trumpet and had on glasses. The dorky one. He He.
Diane @ Fit to the Finish Did you find the way anyone looked in person surprising? I've met a few bloggers in person and surprised at how they looked in person! MizFit was so completely buff. I have honest to goodness never seen a person so cut. I've seen a LOT of buff people. I think that probably I am the one that most people were surprised at. Everyone has their own picture of an anonymous person in their head. It was awkward, entertaining, and embarrassing.
Smart alec TJ Oh and iPhone camera trick- stay still, stay VERY STILL! lol Otherwise you get a BLUR every time. lol :) If I tell you it was my medication would you feel bad? bwahaha. You know I'm kidding . . .
Helen My question is this: did you identify yourself to anyone? Yep. Everyone I met knows my classified first name and my blog. But, I'm not sure anyone could find the real me on fb, twitter, or email. I'm a superspy.
My Lipstick Life Is there plans to do it again so I can try to go? I believe so. I heard Roni and some others talking about it in a pretty matter of fact way at the beginning. However I can't find any mention of it at the site. Roni was pretty darn wiped at the end.
Greta The "Half-Assed" book got my attention...did you look at it? Glad you are having a blast. You out of gum yet? Here is the author's blog. Let's hope Steve-below-doesn't read this question. His head might explode that we don't know who she is!
Cactus Freek "eat this, not that" I did amazon australia and searched it. Here is what they gave me: Eat This Not That. Let me know if they lied and you have to buy the planet to ship.
Steve said "Wow...you really did get lost! That looks like a scary alley. Boo!" I tried to tell you guys. Maybe if I'd been crying. . .
Jenn said..."Hah, thanks for the butt shot!! I guess it's fitting, given the name of my blog, lol!" But you were so cute blogging away there. And we didn't know each other yet. Although I did have my suspicions. You got me.
Well, for anyone who made it to the end, I hope it was worth your while. Need me to clarify anything? Want more links? Do you have anything you find more interesting you want to tell me?
Hope Steve doesn't read what? That you didn't know who Pastaqueen was?! ACK!! :-P
ReplyDeleteJ/k, I can forgive it :) Her book and blog are really good though, so I'd recommend them.
They should have put signs up for the run, in my opinion, especially since the vast majority of people have NEVER been to Baltimore and have easily gotten lost, but I digress.
damn. more links? this puts my upcoming post to shizzame :)
ReplyDeleteNow that I've read your answers and some other Fitbloggin recaps, the only other thing I can think of that I want to know, is just how tall is MIZ? She looks like the tiniest thing ever. Exactly the sort of person I stand away from since I don't want to look like Gigantor.
ReplyDelete@ Steve-Breathe dude. Oops, dating myself again. I concur RE: pastaqueen. She is nice, funny and her website is da BOMB.
ReplyDelete@ MizFit-There will be no damnage to your post. Mine get ridiculous aLOT of times.
@ Helen- SHhh! Miz may come back. (hehe) I don't think she came up to my shoulder. That would actually be about average to slightly short. She is roughly 4 inches shorter than MrsFatass. I AM gigantor, so I would make both of you feel better. Seriously, I don't think there was any fat on those arms! Cables of STEEL they were.
HAHA! No, it's true! Even after you take the pic you need to be as still as a statue! haha! :)
ReplyDeleteMy Mom tried to take a pic of me with a new coat that I got last winter- it took like 100 pictures to get ONE that was semi decent, but still blurry. She just didnt get it. lol
Love your notes, girl...thanks so much. I will definitely want to attend next year...and when is your book coming out :)?
ReplyDeleteJust wanted to stop by and check out your blog and say "hey" and "it was nice to meet ya!"
ReplyDeleteAre you freakin kidding me....some one stole my idea!!! I totally thought that you were just going to a random conference. Never once did I think it was one including bloggers :( Poop! Next time, you tell me...I will go too!
ReplyDeleteI just came over to say "hi" and also to let you know that I gave you a blog award...but I see you already have it. Oh well. You're one of my favorites.
ReplyDeleteYou did great explaning it all. MizFit does look amazing in her pics so I can imagine in person!
ReplyDeleteBy the way - Shape contacted me through the blog. I was very surprised. It was before Dr. Oz happened!
