How To Use Your Blog As A Fitness And Nutrition Journal

The video below explains exactly how to use your blog to record your fitness and nutrition information during the fat loss project, and gives exact instructions for how to report to me at the end of each week.

In summary:  Record all of your exact exercise and nutrition information as explained in the email I sent you, and input it into your blog each night.  At the end of the week (Friday night, and no later than Saturday at noon) copy your blog’s address, go to www.gosleevelessblog.com, look for the post titled ‘Fat Loss Project Week __’, click the comments button, and leave a comment with a little note saying that your journal is ready to be reviewed, and paste the address to it in the comment.  Done.

Below is how your daily blog posts should look (this is taken from my personal journal from yesterday).  Notice the specific detail in recording food quantities, as well as weights, sets, and reps in the exercise portion.  All of this information is required in your daily blog post.
