Who knew that writing a blog all about health, fitness and good-for-you foods would be so much fun? I can't believe another year is nearly over. In the past year, this blog has taken me to The TODAY Show to chat with Hoda and Kathy Lee, every network in Chicago to talk food and fitness and on the air with numerous radio shows all across the country. Thanks to all of you for taking the time to read TDM! I've had a chance to get to know some really great health-minded people from all across the world. Again, thank you all so much. No doubt, 2012 will be loaded with much more.
Here are the top ten most popular TDM blog posts of 2011.
