What Shall I Wear?
December 08, 2006
I just found out that Dietgirl has been nominated in the Best Medical/Health Issues Blog category of the 2006 Weblog Awards.
In the distant past my other blog won a couple of Bloggie awards and I fought the urge to whore for votes. But this is the very first time that good ol' Dietgirl has been nominated for anything so forgive me for being a skank and posting a cheesy button and link to the voting page.
I'm not that familiar with these Awards and they have bizarre system where you can actually vote once every 24 hours. Imagine the administrative nightmare if Presidential voting worked like that!?
So as they say... vote early and vote often. Well, once a day. If you feel like it. Hehe. And thank you to whoever the kind person was that nominated the blog.
I am currently being completely trounced by the opposition. 'MON THE FATBLOG!

I'm Shauna Reid, Scotland-dwelling Aussie


Voted!

Hi Shauna, I've voted for you! I don't think I've ever commented on your site before, but I truly love your blog and even bought "Tales from the Scale" after I finished reading your archives. You have a fantastic writing style and have inspired me to start my own weight-loss blog. Although, um, the actual "weight loss" isn't going as planned. Oh well, I'll just keep plowing ahead. Best of luck with your award, you deserve it!
Take care,
PSG

I just voted, too. And I'll put a note on my blog, although I don't have many visitors. But whatever helps the cause!
