The Journey requires a blog redesign

Today's post is going to be short...

In light of the new focus for the AKStafford blog, I've made some redesigns to the blog. I'm hoping it's a little easier to read. The one thing I'm trying to figure out how to do is to create an easy way for someone just discovering the Journey to start reading at the beginning and come forward.

Let me know what you think of the redesign. I'll probably be tweaking it a little more as time goes on.

Two more things for today's post... First, one of the books in the recommend reading list is Switch from Dan & Chip Heath. If you are endeavoring to launch your own Journey, give it a read. It's all about effecting effective change.

And an update. Today's weight was 332. I'm losing a pound about every three days. So I should be right on track to be at 331 by my birthday on the 24th, as long as I stay focused. I killed it on the elliptical last night, pushing it harder than I ever had on there. And I'm feeling it today...

Here's what my weight loss has looked like lately...


So it's a little up, a little more down and slowly losing. The orange line is there as a general guide for me to see how my progress matches my goal. And remember, a goal without a plan is just a dream...

Hi Todd,
I didn't realize you were posting every day for awhile. I had to go back and read to get caught up. I read the comments that other people wrote about posting every day. It's up to you of course. Some days maybe you have something to say and some days you don't. There are times on my blog that I might post several days in a row, but more often than not I have people write and complain because it's been a week or so since the last blog post. Oh well... When I go fishing the posts will be fewer and farther away I suppose. I blog because I like to- not that I have so much of interest to say. I know that it's nice to get feedback though. It makes you feel like someone really cares and you aren't just wasting your time. I wanted to say, you're inspiring me. Keep up the good work. I know how hard it is to lose weight. By the way, I like the new design on your blog. You're making me pretty happy buddy!
