Blog Changes

Posted: January 3, 2011 at 12:11 pm

Good morning! How’s it going? Are you catching up from the weekend? Check it out:

The Attitude to Achieve 2011 Goals  /  How I Spent NYE  /  Gift Exchange Round-Up

Although I know I have seen a few of these posts around blogs recently, I still wanted to address it here as well. Blog changes. What to expect from FFF in 2011. What you would like to see here in the upcoming year.

I think we can all safely say that this year will bring some changes for me. As I classify this blog as a “healthy living blog” (because its the broader category), those changes will obviously express themselves here. Anyone who has read Faith Fitness Fun recently knows the excitement I share on getting back in shape post-pregnancy …and feeling more like me again in that area.

For that reason, I will certainly talk more about food and fitness. I find the blog a great way to hold myself accountable to achieving my dreams. I also find it a great resource to learn more, while at the same time also providing an example to others that the journey is tough, but possible in a healthy way. I want to more regularly share what I eat and cook more recipes. I plan to post most of my workouts – strength training plans I use, fun cardio ideas, ventures into running, etc. Finally, as I work to achieve my “happy place”, I will also discuss my progress and post pictures displaying said “progress” every 2-4 weeks. Even with all those changes, I must express one thing…

Faith Fitness Fun will NEVER be a weight loss blog where I talk about my weight. I refuse to use a scale, remember? It will NEVER be a food blog where I focus on what I ate each day. My food would bore you if I did that. It will NEVER be a training blog with a focus solely on fitness goals and accomplishments. Been there and done that with my fitness competition. Faith Fitness Fun will continue to live by the tagline “because life is more than diet and workouts”.

Yes, I will write a good deal more about my “diet and workouts”. In fact, I have my next “Body After Baby” post in the works, where I will detail my food and fitness plans for post-baby. However, I will still focus on the overall picture. Adjusting to becoming a mother of two and life’s normal stressors. Taking each day one at a time to see where life leads me. Having fun with new adventures, like blog conferences. Working towards new places with the blog itself and hopefully watching it develop. And most importantly, putting myself out there in every way possible to continue the personal growth this blog has brought to me already.

I’m ready to embrace the changes 2011 has in store for me. I’m ready to let Faith Fitness Fun fully reflect those changes. I’m ready to share it ALL with you, my amazing/fantastic/stupendous/couldn’t-live-without-you readers. Now, let’s get this party started!

Question of the Day – While I will always do things in a way I feel comfortable, please share any ideas you have for things you would (or wouldn’t) like to see here at FFF. This blog wouldn’t be what it is without you. YOU are important to me, so give me what you would like to see in the comments. I will do my best to make it happen.

    Thank u Tina, I am going to quit cardio for awhile and try this and see how it works. I have to eat so much just to maintain 105-106 with doing cardio and i’d probably look more toned and defined with a few more pounds of muscle on. I don’t like skinnyfat. Thank u for the encouragement.

    I love your blog and I’m excited to follow you on this journey in 2011! I’m excited and looking forward to reading your “body after baby” posts, meals, fitness, recipes, etc. It inspires me to try new meals and exercise routines and I’ll surely be taking notes on your “body after baby” posts to help me when that time comes to start a family very soon this year! Thanks Tina, you’re an amazing woman and mom and such an inspiration to us all!
