I’m On Page 46 of Glamour Magazine’s January 2012 Issue!

Last year I was lucky enough to do a Claritin ad in Family Circle, and this time I got picked to be in Glamour Magazine.

They did an open call on Twitter in search of women at their “happy weight”. I saw it. I clicked the link. And then I submitted my picture with a quick bio, yet I thought to myself, “They’re never gonna pick me for this.”

But they did pick me. Well how about that! I got to go to New York for a photo session in Times Square.

I’m on page 46 of Glamour Magazine’s January 2012 issue. It’s the one with the Kardashian b!tches on the front. You should go grab a copy. The article features 6 women, including myself. We’re each holding a sign showing our weight.

It’s really interesting to see the other chick’s weights and do a little comparing (sorry, I couldn’t help myself). It was a great visual lesson on how height and body composition play a big part in how a person looks. Go check it out. You’ll see what I mean. And at least two of these women used to be over 200 pounds. Their weight loss is amazing. It’s very inspiring.

So, hmmm. I wonder if I’ll ever get another opportunity like this again?? I sure hope so! It was a lot of fun. ((giggles))

    The thing that’s great about Josie is that she doesn’t make you feel like a loser if you eat a Twinkie (or Sno-Ball in my case, that’s my weakness.) She’s real, not phony. That’s why we love Josie – because we can be ourselves around her. She’s our REAL friend, not some mean diet-coach shaking a finger at us. She dips into the goodies now and then, and isn’t ashamed of it, because that’s real life, and life is meant to include some evil in it now and then. And she looks awesome, too, proving that you can be a real person and be healthy and look stunning all at the same time.

    Look, I’m taking about you in third-person. You must be a celebrity now ! ! !
