Question of the Week: How Has FBG Changed YOUR Life? With Special Giveaway!
All this week for our five-year birthday bash, each FBG has shared how her life has changed by being a Fit Bottomed Girl. And instead of us all answering another Question of the Week, this time we want to turn the question that we’ve all been answering to you: How has FBG changed your life? Tell us your answer in a comment below,… Continue reading
I grew up learning that bragging was bad. If you do something really, really well, it will be noticed and acknowledged, but you should never acknowledge your own accomplishments. It’s impolite. I get that, but since joining the Fit Bottomed Girl crew, I’ve learned that everything is good in moderation, and that includes bragging.… Continue reading
If you would have told me five years ago that I would be a fitness fiend, I would have laughed in your face. I used to believe that gyms were for the crazy…they were for girls with eating disorders and body dysmorphia…men who wanted to look like Arnold. It amazes me how completely off I was. Where on EARTH did I learn such… Continue reading
Like Jenn said, HOLY COW. Five years of FBG. I don’t even know how it’s possible that I’ve been doing this for so long. In some ways, it feels like the blink of an eye. In other ways, I feel like I’ve always been spreading this Fit Bottomed message. To say that being a Fit Bottomed Girl has been life-changing… Continue reading
Every year for FBG’s birthday, I do some reflecting. (I clearly have a thing for reflecting on birthdays of any kind.) Where have we been? Where are we going? What more can we do to make the world a more Fit-Bottomed place? But as we turn five this week, I’m also turning the question to myself. For everything I’ve given… Continue reading

What Do You Want to See in the Next Five Years?
In our five years of FBG, we’ve seen a lot of trends come and go. When we started, yo-yo dieting was more common (and accepted), there was less discussion about positive body image, and when working out you didn’t have near as many fun and creative (and bad-ass) options to choose from. Being vegan or gluten-free was “weird,”… Continue reading
