Spotlight a WAHM – Angie Newton

May 22, 2010 WAHM Fitness, WAHM Spotlight Meme

Name: Angie Newton

Website: Losing It and Loving It

I remember well when Angie first started this site as we were learning about SEO techniques at the same time. I got to know Angie from various wahm forums and this was all before wordpress really got out and was popular.  So we were into trying to find the best programs to use for building our html sites without breaking the bank.

Angie loves to travel to Jamaica with her hubby and I’m always so jealous of her trips.  I love to see the pictures and was really excited to hear about this next trip back in December when she’ll be participating in a Half Marathon!

She has come a long way with both her site and fitness goals.  She does a remarkable job of passing on the information she has learned on her 5 years of better health so far.  Posting her weekly meal plans, workouts, struggles and great tips she is learning on this journey.

I love how Angie will tell you the truth about her success or struggles.  I know from a business standpoint this really helps me with my personal training business.  While I have struggled with my weight since my first pregnancy, I’ve always been really into sports, working out and have known what I was doing that was bad.  It helps me to remember that I do have to teach and it helps to remind me that this is why I got into training.  To help teach.  Which is exactly what Angie is also doing with her site

With our weekly spotlight meme we will now be asking them a question.  We would love for you to copy the above spotlight a wahm banner and post the answer to this question on your own blog.  Of course, comment here to let us know and fill out the meme to get us to check it out!

I asked Angie, ” What was the hardest thing for you in that first year of business?”

“The thing I found the most difficult in my 1st year of business was all the various opportunities that were coming at me from every corner and I was unfocused much of the first few years online until I finally decided to focus on ONE thing and was rewarded well for that.”

Boy this is something I can relate to and I will be posting my answer to this question on two of my blogs.

Thank you Angie for putting together a remarkable blog that I still like to follow after all these years!
