Hello all, a quick note about a cool new feature to the PeteCast.
I have been making a push to try and post lots of fun content on the site. In the future this will only expand. I have been doing my best as well to get the word out there about the PeteCast. I set up recently a feature that automatically posts an alert on Facebook when new posts are made. With these alerts showing up both from me and to fans of the PeteCast there has been a fantastic raise in traffic.
However, I know I can do better. So I am happy to announce the addition of the PeteCast eNewsletter! You can read more about it by visiting the eNewsletter link in the right side column or by clicking here.
By signing up for the eNewsletter you will receive as-it-happens alerts or weekly/monthly recaps (you can change these options in your eNewsletter preferences). This way you can stay up to date with all the happenings of the PeteCast and be the first to know about new articles and features.
As always, please let your friends know and thanks so much for reading!
February 2010, at least for me, went by very quickly. Arguably it has a few less days than all the other months, but I’m still talking fast. The winter Olympics came and went, LOST season six started and has progressed nicely, and I have lost a lot more weight and finished a book. Wrap-up time!
Challenge #2: Lose weight on the South Beach Diet.
Current weight: 196.2
Current BMI: 27.47 (I think, may need adjusting)
Weight loss from start: -37.5 lbs.
Progress: While not quite reaching the sheer success that was January, February over all has been another fantastic month for my weight loss challenge. If you recall from my last monthly wrap-up post, I finished off the month at 208.6 lbs, a loss of 25.1 lbs from the start. As of yesterday, February 28th, I was at 196.2 lbs, a loss of 37.5 lbs from the start and 12.4 lbs total loss for the month. It’s just under half of what I lost in January alone, but is still a phenomenal amount as far as I’m concerned.
January 2010 has come to a close, so here is a recap of my 2010 challenges progress so far.
Challenge #1: Watch all of LOST seasons 1-5 before the final season premieres on February 2nd, 2010.
Progress: Complete!
As you might have seen in my last post, I finished this challenge right on time. Watching all of LOST again was an amazing experience. It was so great to catch all the little ins and outs the writers stuck in there from the beginning and see where it has all led up to. If you’d like to read more of my thoughts on lost, check out that post here, or click on the LOST category on the right side bar.
OK, for any of you who have frequented my blog throughout time and have a sharp eye you are looking around this page and saying, “Yea it’s a little different but still mostly looks the same”. Well you’d of course be right. I use the term “all new” but thats a little bit of a stretch. All of the same old blog content is here, and for the most part so is the look and style of the old version minus a few nicer styling tweaks.
No, instead the biggest and most important change you’ll spot on this page however, is in your browser’s address bar. You are now reading this post at “petecast.com”.
“How is this different!?”, you may ask while starting to feel exacerbated.
First, take this moment to update your bookmarks or favorites, I’ll wait (tip: hitting control+D is easiest). Now that you’ve done that, it’s different because up until this very moment you’ve been reading all these thoughtful posts on “petecast.libsyn.com”.
Small change, right? WRONG! This is a HUGE change. Let me explain…
