Here are some final numbers in regards to the fad-diet diet I did on Revival of the Faddist and the no-diet diet I did on The Dead Weight.

I did fad diets on and off for about 200 days and lost 54 pounds.

I did “no” diet for about 250 days and lost 50 pounds.

So, what’s next?

What’s next is “Season 3.”

I like the ideas of blogs with ends. Most blogs just go on and on. I like the idea of a blog being a self-contained unit. I kind of think of them as seasons of a TV show. Revival of the Faddist, was season 1. This blog, The Dead Weight, was season 2. In May I will be starting season 3 with a new site which will be the final site in my weight loss trilogy. I feel I’ve worked on two sites devoted to both ends of the dieting spectrum and now it’s time to take what I learned and use it to finally complete my weight loss project. This will probably take another 9 months to a year, I’m guessing.

I will be posting an update here once things are ready but in May everything will transition to the as-yet-unnamed new site.

In the meantime, if you enjoy this site and you haven’t read Revival of the Faddist, I’ve picked out some of my favorite posts or posts that I got the most feedback on.
