Awesome Vlog
With the funny and the activity...Great idea! Could be my new favorite
Love it!
You girls are fabulous! What a brilliant idea, walking, talking, yet so simple! Though it was hard to take my eyes off you gorgeous ladies, the concept of walking around LA gave an interesting perspective of it for someone who has never been there.
Bridget, cheers for being so honest. I'm in a position now where I want to lose weight, not much, but a bit, and its so hard sometimes. I LOVED your T-Shirt too!! Where's it from?
And thanks to you both for making me laugh. I needed it!
More Jennie Please!!!
AWESOME VLOG idea!!!! I'm
AWESOME VLOG idea!!!!
I'm currently in the process of shedding some extra weight. I'm minus 6kg (13 pounds) and still about 19kg (41 pounds) to go so this fits me perfectly as inspiration to get up and do something :D
Bridget is such an inspiration and so much fun as is Jennie so THANKS!!
a little bit of Bridget in my Life!!
great!
It's too bad I chose a profession that involves a lot of sitting, because I hate working out. And yes I'm watching this sitting down:p But that's also because I just got back from school, have been running up and down stairs and drove my bysicle for 30 minutes, so I'm done for today. The days I don't go to school is a diffirent story, since I don't move all day because of my homework... I always try to do some dancing or moving to music everyday, but sometimes I'm just too busy. But I eat breakfast every day! Haha! No, I know I have to move, it's just so hard when you have deadlines to finish homework... Anyways, love the vlog, and I'm looking forward to future episodes! Maybe it'll inspire me to get some more exercise. although I hate it...:p

*sigh* It's so much fun having an extra Bridget dose this week.
It was really funny. Loved it.
going for a run now
I was not going to go for a run today but this vlog inspired me- can you post a new one every day to push me to exercise more?
Check out and upload great lesbian videos on www.tellofilms.com
Brilliant start
and my special kudos to the camera person. I am so tempted to know who s/he is.
I fell bad I watched
I fell bad I watched this vlog will eating cookiedough I'm ashamed of myself :(
Kappa Kappa Eat My Pi till I die
Loved the "extra mile" vid on Jennie's site
But you have to click on "vlogs and podcasts" on the menu bar to see it. The link at the bottom of her homepage for "the extra mile" links to AE. Really glad to see AE pick up "Walking Funny With...".
hahaha
I love how many people admitted to eating during this vlog...I was too...i'm sad to admit
Bridget you are so inspirational and relatable! I also used to hide food in my room during middle school and would act all "I don't know how this is happening" when questioned about my weight gain.
Excellent new vlog!

thank you Jennie and Bridget and camera person or just everybody that work on this to make it a great first episode ;o)
this, is great-
Good stuff!
I saw a comment that said
I saw a comment that said it was up on Jennies' site a few days ago but I didn't wanna watch, I wanted to have some restraint so when it came to AE it would be new to me lol. I get really bored of the gym but I swim everyday and I like to be involved in team stuff cause it makes it so much easier when your'e not doing it alone...
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------There is too much love in this world to have to deal with hate.
I literally exercised along with this
I enjoyed this vlog :] It was nice to hear about Bridget's past struggles with weight, I had the same issue myself.
Thanks for beeing so
Thanks for beeing so spurring! I indeed did some exercises while watching (some crunches, sun salutes and push-ups). And to get me lazy couch-potato to do something is a huge accomplishment!!
So please, keep vlogging, so I won't end up with my ass glued to my sofa!
Love to Bridge and Jennie!
Loved It
Can't wait for more.

Good stuff I liked it except
Great!
Most important meal of the day
Up a lil' late (homework..and a movie) just finished breakfast and off to do my morning exercises. Just wanted to say love Bridget (fat or thin I've got the biggest crush) really enjoyed the show, and wanted to say thanks for the motivation! Here I go..
Great job
What a great idea for a vlog, especially since it's that "I need to look good in a bathing suit" time of the year. Jennie and Bridget complement each other well, and of course it's nice to see a little extra Bridget this week.
And I wish that reading burned just as many calories as running did, if that was the case I'd be a might bit slimmer. :]

That was fun, however i was
That was fun, however i was eating a sandwhich....but I so desirved it!
Good advice, great.. I wish i could play football (soccer) again but i have 3 weeks of horrible college left til i graduate and A. have a social life again and B excersize or move at all instead of spending 22 hours behind my laptop every day smoking like a chimney
yet another comment about Bridget
Dear Bridget,
Could you please do a two-hour comedy special and put it on DVD for release to the public? That'd be great, thanks! lol.
Lots of love, xoxo
P.S. Not only are you funny, but you're a bit of an inspiration as well. Thanks for being so honest, and of course, hilarious!
I second that!
Go Bridget!
(PS: I'm doing some sports right now by watching the European Soccer Championship ;p)
confession
ok, i have to confess, i didn't watch your vlog walking around in my room, but i have an excuse. i just got home from basketball practice, which was really exhausting, especially because we have a game tomorrow (so wish me luck lol)
what was really great, this vlog made me feel good about myself again and me doing exercise, i was feeling down recently with me playing basketball, it's not so much fun for me as it used to be, but it's still good that i'm doing it, it's very good for my body ;)
so anyway, great vlog, keep up the good work.
thanks!!!
Yeah!
Yippee to extra Bridget! Fell asleep in bed last night with Bridget and Spashley across my legs only to be woken @ 4:35am dropping me laptop on the floor...bugger! Anyway, fairly disturbing how much I ate whilst watching that....excercise has never been my friend, s'pose a long walk every now and then won't kill me. Well done girls, cool v-log!
the vlog
That was nice. And frustrating :-( I used to play soccer, I have played since I was 5. I was even in our state team. But three years ago I had an injury and now I can't do any sports that involve... well... legs. I gained about 15kg and lots n lots of frustration. I haven't found a way out of that yet, but... maybe I will someday.
Cool Vlog anyways, I liked it :-)
That was good! Thanks!!! :)
Wonderful...
Yeah... another wonderful After Ellen vlog and another wonderful hostess! Jennie is terrific and to have her first vlog be with established hostess and funny woman extraordinaire Bridget is just fantastic! I was about to say that it was "icing on the cake", but after watching this vlog, it seems that this might be a poor choice of words.
I think that Bridget and the tale of her own weight woes is wonderfully inspirational... I told her myself about how great and inspiring her tale has been to me (at the NYC meet & greet), and how I myself have proudly dedicated this year to getting myself healthy and in shape and her kind words of encouragement have really meant so much to me!
I'm glad that After Ellen has brought onboard the already jam packed and talented list of women the talented Jennie McNulty, who I think will be another perfect fit to the After Ellen "family".

Great vlog as always, thanks!
Anyway… the location and setting made me think of the “Rules of Un-attraction-scene” with Alice and Dana in The L Word Season 2.
And since it’s included in one of my compilations on The Corky Channel, I just had to comment about it and share this link:
The L Word Alice and Dana, season 2 (part 1/8) - the "Runyon Canyon-scene" starts at 5:49.
Did anyone else have the same trip down memory lane?
That's exactly what I was
That's exactly what I was thinking...
P.S Jennie do you mind that you get a new vlog and all we are able to talk about is Bridget lol, Bridget we love you (lots) but Jennie you're fab too!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------There is too much love in this world to have to deal with hate.
BRIDGET!!
Good choice for your first guest. I can't get enough of Bridget!!
Oh yeah "The fabulous Bridget McManus"
I liked this vlog, it was very interesting. Bridget speaks openly about her past, I find it very moving. I appreciate Bridget a lot and fact of discovering new things on her, it's that of the happiness.
I have already tried to lose weight but it was difficult and it did not work, I think that Bridget is going to become my first motivation to put back me to the job ;-)
The Runyon Canyon is a really gorgeous place.
Thank you so much Sarah, Jennie and Bridget.
Kisses.

Twins much?
Alrighty Bridget...... I did not realize how alike we are until I watched this vlog! Besides the obvious (lesbiansssssss! brunettes, at that), I also talk fast, am from New England, and have.....*gasp*.... 70 pounds to lose. People tell me that I should go into standup, which sounds fun (haha "You wouldn't fuck me when I was fat" x2) . We both also seem to have incredibly understanding siblings (ha, not really...). My brother calls me Obeast (a cross between obese and beast, if that wasn't clear), obese hippo, or just fat. Little prick. I'm waiting for the day that his metabolism changes and he isn't so "cut" anymore. HA.
Anyways, enough about me..... awesome vlog! I kinda wish I lived in L.A. so I could walk up that Canyon....
who's that girl
wow ..never heard of her but now that i have
wow, she's a pretty hot butch
yum (wait I edited this as I had some re-thinking on my comment)
I was saying that girls who play football etc.. and are uber-out intimidated me a bit and still do, but am also attracted to their incredible presence and strength. It's like they are living who they are very completely, and it flies in the face of society.
I hope she shows some of the football practices that would be hot !
Awesome new vlog
What a great idea for a vlog. I actually started jumping on my mini trampoline thingy about 5 minutes in.
Bridget was a great first guest, love her! You two were so funny. Can't wait to see the rest =D

The tyrannt has no idea of what she/he really wants!
you guys could be trainers!
that was a very inspiring vlog! exercising is truly the natural anti-depressant, especially hiking outside. just watching was motivating enough to get out and walk, besides i dont have much room to pace inside my cubicle anyways. i am so doing the banana for breakfast now! bridget sold it for me! great idea. thank you for being open to talking about your past, bridget. always love hearing about your story.
Something new to look forward to!
What an amazing vlog. I loved it!! I look forward to seeing more of Jennie. The idea to encourage an active life style with comedy is a great idea.
Bridget rocked in every way. I loved that she was so honest and open about her life, but was her usual funny self at the same time.
Both are amazing women. Perfect way to kick off a new vlog!
Any road is a good road when you don't know where you're going.
i love this!
You know what I have been on a roller blading kick.. i have made a promise to myself i am goona try n take 30 minutes a day to exercise...
I am pushhing myself a bit... but i am getting like defined abs.. thats reward enough lol..
I am liking what this blog is doing.. GREAT job!! N bridget I can understand the struggle with weight.. but all we have to do is small things to make our lives healthier...
