Lite n Easy, week 6

liteneasy.jpgWell it’s been a couple of weeks since I’ve updated you about my progress on Lite n Easy, partially because there was a week or two where I didn’t lose any weight but I blame myself for that seeing as I was drinking a few beers.

Anyway I’m properly back on the Lite n Easy wagon now and with the weight I lost last week I’ve managed to lose 10kg so far, so that’s 10kg in 5 weeks..not bad at all really.

The good thing about losing weight this way is that it’s sustainable loss, ie. you don’t put it back on straight away unlike some other rapid weight loss diets where you usually have put it all back on within a week or two.

Week 6 is just about to start, in fact it should be being delivered in an hour or so….hrmmm I might grab a few photos, or a video, of the unpacking process as you’ll get a good idea of exactly what is involved with dieting with Lite n Easy.

So stay tuned for some photos or video, not sure if I’ll be able to upload them this morning as I’ve got to go to Sydney for a meeting, but I’ll try and get them uploaded later today when I’m back.

Take it easy, Matt

The Best of The Week [TWBOTW]

tbotw.gifIn a week where my RSS subscriptions have been dominated by news and commentary from SXSW I figured this was going to be a difficult TBOTW to put together, in actual fact it’s been very easy as there is still some fantastic content being produced by the ’smaller’ name blogs while all the big guys are at SXSW.

So here’s this weeks The Best of The Week!

11 Must Have Firefox Extensions by Shoemoney - as a Firefox user I’m always looking out for good extensions that will speed up my workflow, there’s a couple of ‘must haves’ in this list.

and why not follow that up with another software one, and I know there’s a fair number of Mac users reading this blog last time I checked Google Analytics

5 Amazing Mac Apps for Getting Things Done by Zen Habits - The ideal for anyone interested in Getting Things Done (more on GTD, and more)– or just being productive and organized, for that matter — is to be able to quickly add things to your to-do lists without interrupting your work; to be able to see what you need to do right now, without worrying about everything else; to be able to organize stuff without too much work.

The Blog Entrepreneur brought us this interesting article on Why Most Bloggers Will Never Succeed at Blogging - You don’t have to spend very much time surfing the blogosphere to deduce that a number of blogs get started and are posted on for a week or two, maybe even a few months, but then go dormant. Another bit of evidence is the sheer number of domains that are available for auction via GoDaddy or the various forums.

Seopher had some interesting things to say in his article on How to get success by authoring multiple blogs that I found pretty interesting as someone who is getting into authoring multiple blogs (I’m With The Band, Medical News Stat!, A Business is Born, Fat Stacks of Cash).

and on the topic of search engine marketing (SEO) Stoney over at Search Engine Guide gave us some insight that I think a lot of people would find useful in his article titled Sometimes Fixing a Site Means Breaking It First

and still on the topic of SEO check out the article on Daily Blog Tips with the tip on how you can Check How Search Engines See Your Website which you should bookmark as a valuable resource any time you do any changes to your website’s SEO! was quietly suprised on how this website shows up.

Last but not least check out Chris G’s Free eBook on Personal Branding written by Ted Demopoulos, why go out and pay a bunch of bucks for quality information you can get for nix, and it is quality information.

Anyway, those are some of the best articles to hit my RSS Reader this week. Hopefully there’s something amongst this lot which will help you out in the future, be sure to Digg and / or Stumble it for future reference, maybe even Subscribe to my RSS feed so that you get this delivered to you each week.

Till next week, Matt
