Diet Blogs and Bloggers:
What Are They Thinking?

Diet blogs are popping up everywhere

I'll admit it: when I got my degree in nutrition, no one told us to tell people to blog about their weight loss efforts on the internet. There barely was an internet!

I am fascinated by the whole phenomenon, and I'm eager to better understand it. Maybe you are too.

That's why I'm asking people who are active diet bloggers to tell me (and you) all about it.

What were they thinking when they decided to do it?
Is it helping them with their weight loss goals?
How exactly did they go about it? What's involved?
Have there been any benefits they didn't expect?

Maybe we'll find out that you should be keeping one too!

My readers and I want to know why you blog about your weight loss struggles. Did you think it would help to go public? Has it? Please, tell us about your experience!

(By the way, I do ask that you at least mention my site on your blog in return. Hopefully you can find something nice to say about it!)

What's the name of your weight loss blog?

Type here please. Tell why you decided to blog, what your experience has been, what sets your blog apart from others, how often you post, how many visitors you get and who they are, whether you've gotten a sense of community from it, etc. Has it helped you with your eating goals?

Your story will appear on a Web page exactly the way you enter it here. You can wrap a word in square brackets to make it appear bold, but no html. Please include the url of your blog at the END of your entry.

Short paragraphs please, and how about an opening sentence that makes an impact!
