Many of you know, that I am overweight, and had a major heart attack over the summer... 6Tuple bypass.
I am thinking of creating a motivational website where I track my progress of weight loss and health for 365 days ( not for profit ). It will be like a combination blog / standard website.
I'll post my "today" photos ... and follow it through 365 days, adding more photos, videos, and maybe even a podcast or something. It will show what I am eating. I'll post my workout charts....
Again, it is all non profit....
What I am thinking here is that it might be motivational to watch the actual progress.
What do you think? Do you have any ideas you might want to contribute? Anything that helps people.
Thanks.

I would certainly visit. I always love reading stories of people who are on this journey and especially the successes. It is very inspirational to me.
I also think it is a good idea for you to do in regards to accountability. Sometimes just knowing others are following our progress and look to us for motivation as well can make all the difference in whether or not we are successful.
Keep us updated!

Truth be told, that may be my main motivation, but I sure would love it if other people enjoyed it, and / or benefitted from it.

I'm another one who likes to follow other *lifestyle changers* as they progress through their journey. I think such a website can serve as motivation for others as well as accountability for you. I think you are making a great step towards a healthier you and a step in living up to your signature!! Best of luck to you on your journey, please let us know when you have your site up and running.

I think this is a wonderful idea! I encourage you to do this. Perhaps you could post here once in a while, to remind people to visit your site.
I'm glad that you pulled through the heart attack/bypass and are so motivated to be healthy!

Well, I bought the domain, and bought a year of hosting.... now all I need to do is actually figure out how to make a website!
Even though they have templates, and say it is sooooo easy, I'm not figuring much of it out yet.
