My entry for the Looking Back / Looking Forward CCC Contest Pilot

I’m looking forward to doing better on STEEM this week. I’ve had a rough month of May 2019 so far, with a trip to Singapore at the beginning of the month, then two weeks of sickness and recovery, and a personal crisis following that. A trifecta of bad times!

I run three blogs here, and try to post 50 times a week while making 200 comments/replies, entering at least 30 contests, promoting on twitter, and a few other key tasks. Needless to say, my statistics have been down for the last 3 weeks.

So, no more excuses this week. I am looking forward to meeting my goals and creating work I can be proud of here on STEEM.

For @fitinfun, my main blog, I am going to post three times a day, and for @fitinfunfood and @bxlphabet, I will post twice.

In particular for @fitinfunfood, I will post at least 4 @tasteem restaurant reviews that get me the best post payouts and interaction. Those posts take the most work of anything I do here, but since they are the best payers I have, there is really no excuse to put them off.

The effort to get 4 reviews out this week is leading up to an effort to get 5-6 reviews in all the weeks to come after that.

All of this effort is in support of my dream to be able to get to steemfest this year. It is in Bangkok and I am in Kuala Lumpur, so I really should not miss it. I have been on STEEM for the last two steemfests, but with them in Europe and me in SE Asia, they were completely out of my reach.

I will have no way to get to the Bangkok steemfest without my blogs paying the way. With over 5 months before the event, I think I have a good chance to make this work.

This post is my entry for the Looking Back / Looking Forward Contest by @nmcdougal94 for CCC. As said in the call for entry post:

The point of this contest is to write a post following the #ccc rules about something that you either enjoyed doing over the past week, or are looking forward to doing in the coming week.

I am so grateful to see this contest to help me strengthen my resolve. I hope this contest will continue and I will post to it weekly to keep myself on track.

My photos are unedited and might end up in one of my next reviews. They are from my local hangout place with good free wifi so I can eat and work at the same time. As you can see - my photos need work to be good enough to post in reviews.

Taking the photos, choosing the best, and processing them are some of the reasons those @tasteem posts take me so long.

How is your journey to better health going?

Is your fitness equipment out handy? Are you on a "diet?" Soon we will be in Bathing Suit Season. Are you ready?

I lost "Half My Size" eight years ago by using natural methods. No tricks, just doing a bit better every day. I started on October 10 one year, and did not give up. Four years later, on October 5th, there I was - thin and healthy for the first time in my life. You can do it too!
