I found about the FitBloggin 2011 event today on Jendi's Simple Vlogging Tips show on MomTV – what a stroke of luck! I live in Columbia, MD – only 15 minutes from downtown Baltimore- and have been writing a healthy lifestyle blog for 15 months. I can't wait for the event – check out my post – http://fitnessweightlosscenter.com/editorial/fitb…
See you there!
FitBloggin to the rescue! I really need all the help I can get 🙂

I don't have the budget right now to make the trip across the country. If I win a ticket, I'll work hard to get other sponsors so that I can be there!
