Twitter Your Way to Fitness

It has been nearly a month since I’ve posted an article on bregan.info and I’m starting to get anxious to start posting more often. To that end I spent a good part of last night brainstorming things I’d like to research further. For me this blog is not only a way for me to share my knowledge about health and fitness with you, but it is also a way for me to research the latest diet pills, exercise programs, and cheap weight loss techniques so I I can pass the knowledge along to you. It is my goal to completely research any topic I write about so you don’t have to. Instead of getting bits and pieces from other sites, you can come to bregan.info and get it all in one place.

To further that philosophy I’ve recently created a Twitter account that I will use exclusively for fitness news. If you’re not familiar with Twitter, it is a way that people keep up to date on topics of interest by following users that share similar interests. Since I’m interested in losing weight I searched Twitter for people tweeting (posting) about weight loss. Using Twitter I can find interesting headlines then research them at my leisure. For example, another Twitter user I’m following tweeted about a study where people who drink diet soda are at a high risk of obesity than people who don’t. I can take this idea and learn everything I can about it. Then once I get enough information I can write a well researched article on it.

In addition to using Twitter to follow people that write interesting notes I can also tell all of you a little more about me and my struggle with weight loss. As my frequent visitors already know, I lost about 100 pounds in under a year, then I hit a plateau. I’ve become less motivated to workout and eat right because when I do I just don’t see the results I’m used to.

I need to reverse that trend, and I’m starting today. It is summer time here in the south I’m getting ready to get out and start being more active. As I do that I’m going to tweet about my challenges along the way, as well as post here about decisions I make and research I do. So if you’re interested in hearing about what I’m doing to stay healthy please follow me @OutdoorsyGeek on Twitter and I’d be glad to share my story with you!
