Less Is More

125 blog entries ago I declared 'There Is No Plan B' when I started this website. Since the 100th Blog, I have been thinking where else can I take this? What can I do next? How can I improve it? Last week, I introduced the Be My Guest blog, something I want to continue as the first one has been a tremendous success. The Weigh-In Wednesday blogs have always proved to be the most popular ones and they are an excellent way for me to record my weight. So I don't want to change that either.

I have realised I don't want to change anything too much. However I do feel change is needed. One thing The Real Slim Shandy cannot argue with is the sentiment that less is more. So I've decided not to blog daily anymore. Weekends have been a struggle for sometime now, and I've never been a fan of adding more than one blog a day, even if they are back-dated. It's not fair on you the reader, and it can become more of a chore for me.

The Real Slim Shandy will continue. The new version will have updated blogs on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. I think that will work well for me and hopefully for you too. Mondays will be a mixture of what has happened in the previous seven days along with what is to come. Wednesdays will continue to be Weigh-In ones and Friday's are the home of my guest blogger - for however long that feature will continue.

I hope you will embrace these changes and continue to visit this blog, read, comment and react. This place still keeps the pressure on me to do good, try hard and not let myself slip up too much when I have doubts about all this. I honestly believe I would have gave up a long time ago if it wasn't for the continued knowledge that I have to tell all here.

So... I'll see you Wednesday for the Weigh-In, then pop back on Friday for another special guest blogger.

Thanks for reading.

Phew, I am more likely to be able to keep up now! To be honest, I have been in total awe of your ability to keep up this blog! I do a monthly one for the charity and find that hard to keep up with.

Such stamina in one so "young"!
