This isn’t fun related really, but I was just wondering if there was a way to subscribe to your blog? Since I’ve just recently come across I’m having a hoot reading the archives instead of actually doing work at work – it’d be awesome if I got a notice when your new ones go up. If not I’ll just continue to check at my leisure but I thought I’d ask. :)

Hi there,

I’ve just stumbled across your blog and LOVE it. Have you ever thought about setting up something like a formspring page so people could ask you questions?

Hi Gina-
This is random, but since you teach zumba and said you love to dance. Would you give some tips on dancing? Sounds ridiculous, but I have no sense of rhythm and would love some tips on how to dance at bars, weddings, keep the beat,etc. Thought maybe it could be a fun post?!

that is a fun idea- thank you! :)

Along with Lissi’s idea…I would love to watch one of your Zumba classes since that seems to be a big love in your life. I do not know if you are allowed to film any while you are at work, but there are always fun Zumba dances on YouTube and I was wondering if you would post one!

Hello! Love your blog!!!! keep up the good work! If you don’t mind my asking how did you lose 40 pounds? What foods did you focus on? What foods did you stay away from? I am struggling and was just wondering if you could offer any advice. Thanks!!!

I was wondering if you have ever done or will consider doing a post on your favorite things, such as home appliances, (like what dehydrator you use) or what blender etc?

Hey, I wasn’t sure how to contact you, and this seemed like a good spot to do it… My Hubs and I will be visiting Arizona in early spring (specifically the Phoenix and Sedona areas) and I was just wondering if you had any suggestions for things we should/places we should visit (on a modest budget) while in the great state. We’re from Indiana and have never been so we’re REALLY excited! THANKS!
