Changes in the wind

There will be some changes here at Blog To Fit.

As many of you likely read on Thursday, David Fowler has had to drop out of the blogging world for a while. This move, while unfortunate for his many readers – here and at his own blog, was necessary for the stability of his home life.

We will miss Fowler’s presence. His dedication to fitness, his heartfelt and inspirational writing and hilarious comments have become a large part of this blog’s personality. And of course, he is one of the most genuine, nicest people we’ve had the pleasure of working with. We wish him well in all his efforts and he is, of course, welcome back here at any time.

Some of you have since wondered what all this means for Blog To Fit, since Dave is one of the original three members of our group blog.

Well, we thought about it long and hard. Truth is, we’ve both been struggling to make enough time for BlogToFit in recent weeks. On top of our own blogs, we are both attempting to find work after being laid off last year.

It was one thing when the work was split among three people. Split among two, a bit harder. In short, we can’t justify spending the same amount of time on this site, given our economic situations.

We considered closing up shop, but thought better of it. We’ve made too many friends here and that we’ve been able to offer some inspiration and a platform for others attempting to get fit, means a lot to us. And let’s face it, if we give up on this, it will be all to easy for both of us to stop our efforts and pack on pounds.

So, we will be cutting back the site’s posting schedule to once per week, the weekly Wednesday Weigh-In.

We may post other posts from time to time as time and inspiration permits, but for now, we feel it best to scale back in order to keep moving forward.

While we are scaling back, we will be adding a bit more to our Wednesday Weigh-Ins, rather than the quick summaries you’ve come to expect. We hope that you will continue to be part of our efforts to get fit and look forward to seeing you at tomorrow’s Wednesday Weigh-In.
