We are two friends on a mission to live fit, healthy and happy lives. It’s not always easy, but we are definitely having a great time trying to get there. We want to share our story as we challenge ourselves and give you the truth about how it goes. So join us as we try out food and fitness gadgets, tips, and theories.

Sara Enjoying a Cardinals Game
Sara lives in St. Louis, Mo., (Go Cards!) with her husband, Seth, and two perfectly opposite kitty cats. She loves to cook and eat good food. She’s never found a recipe that didn’t need a slight adjustment!

Amanda's First Triathlon
Amanda lives in Louisville, Ky., with her husband, Adam, and two fluffy dogs. She is a marathon finisher and triathlete who’s always had a problem saying ‘no’ to a challenge!
Fit To Be Tried will explore all aspects of nutrition and exercise. We want to test out products, recipes, exercises, advice, and more, and give you our tried and true results. We’ll also share things we stumble upon that help us lead happier lives.
Have a question, or a wellness thing you’ve always wondered about? Let us know and we’ll check it out! Feel free to comment here on the blog, or you can email us at: fittobetried@gmail.com. We’re also on Twitter and Facebook, so look us up there!

Hey, ladies! If you’re still active (blogging, I mean) I was wondering if you’ve heard any real feedback about the shoes that are supposed to boost your buns! You know, the hideous-looking ones?!? I’d be willing to lace them up despite how ugly they are if they really work!
Hey, Nicole, I haven’t tried the toning shoes…have you yet??
I think they’re fairly gimmick-y, and I’m assuming that people that see results probably weren’t active to begin with. But like I said, I haven’t tried them so I can’t say for sure:)
