I’m SO glad I decided to attend the Healthy Living Summit. I learned a lot of new things. Ate a lot of delicious food! Met some great new friends and reconnected with old ones. Explored Chicago. Toured the FritoLay Factory. Tweeted. Talked about healthy living and blogging!
Since you can find HLS recaps on 200+ food and fitness blogs, I’m just going to share some of my favorite photos from the weekend.
Ready to go running on Friday morning.
Inspiration for Kelly Clarkson’s Behind These Hazel Eyes? I spotted this giant eyeball as we rushed from the L back to our hotel before the cocktail party.

Blogger feeding frenzy!
A healthy breakfast. I went up for seconds and devoured a bowl of oatmeal topped with brown sugar and fresh fruit.
Quaker snack break.
All of the HLS food was fantastic. I especially loved the quinoa and the cheesecake!
Yup, we all take pictures of our food.
Blogger panel discussing the ups and downs of blogging.
Katie‘s emotional blogging story. Starting a blog can create so many wonderful life changes. Great way to end the conference!
I left the 2010 Healthy Living Summit with tons of swag, pages of notes, and lots of memories from an amazing weekend with my very best “blends.”
