Please take a moment to let me know what YOU want to see more of. (CONTEST - One commentor will be selected to win – see below.)
Believe it or not at the end of this week will mark 104 weeks of fatblogging! I started May 1, 2006 on a free Wordpress blog called Incredible Shrinking Ladies, blogging with my best friend Mama Kelly about our plans to get healthy and lose weight (Introduction – first post). Then on April 1, 2007 I created Diet Pulpit (Save the Body, the Soul Will Follow – first Diet Pulpit post Weighty Wisdom Category), and fall of last year moved everything to my own domain (and closed Incredible Shrinking Ladies combining the content here).
As I kick off the start of my third year of fatblogging, I would like know what all of you would like to see more of here. Please take a moment and leave a comment and if you wish feedback is always welcome too on ways to improve.
Do you want to see more:
Heavenly Recipes
Health Tips
Reviews
Belly Laughs (humor)
Rants and In the News (odd bits, controversial topics)
Weighty Wisdom (fire and brimstone, tongue in cheek)
Personal Life (insights, blogging raw – honest stories from past and present)
Family, Home, Crafts
All Of The Above – keep things fresh with a lot of variety
Other – suggestions for topics, categories, regular features from past (i.e. Miracle of the Scales) or new ideas for features to add
Thanks to everyone for stopping by, thank you for being a reader of my blog, and thank you for your time and input to making this blog the best it can be.
Health and Happiness, Lady Rose

I vote for all of the above. Variety is the spice of life, after all. I believe balance in all areas of life is key to both happiness, fulfillment, and success. By covering many topics you bring balance to your blog. And this makes your blog appealing to a wider audience as well.

I came in to say that I’m all about the funny – so mark me down for Belly Laughs (humor). That being said, I cannot help but agree with Carol – variety is truly yhe spice of life. However, don’t try telling this to my wife – geesh, what a mistake! (kidding). Love the blog — all the best.

All of the above, a healthy blog has variety.
Plus it gives you more things to write about.

I just found your blog and I am looking forward to reading it. I agree that variety is a good idea to achieve balance.
Also I would like to see about just plain COPING with life – being able to deal with and feel feelings and maintain a spiritual focus. And also part of that “coping” issue is taking care of my spirit. Hearing about ways to take care of our spirit would help, I believe, to help deal with these issues of overeating.

I like personal real-life stories and humor. Women are great storytellers. I just stopped by to tell you that I had linked to you from Losing Proposition. I am desperately trying to lose weight with a friend, sort of like you and Mama Kelly.

I’m all for things I can take away and put to work but also personal stories, insights and efforts. I hang out with the blogging about blogging crowd so while I have lots to say on that subject too much “meta blogging” (too much is more than 20%) might change my feelings towards this as a blog where I can get away from that side of things.
Also I love the funnies but rarely feel I have anything to add (I love commenting). I’ve not really told you anything about what I might like but I have hopefully shown you what sort of audience member I am.

Adding a bit of variety on your blog is good, so maybe for all above?
Sometimes you are focusing too much on one part, and forgetting that there are other good things that you want to share too

I’ll agree with those who say “All of the above.” You never wanna be too niche specific with a blog anyway eh?
Congratulations and keep up the great work!
