Congrats to Shirley, the winner of the blog survey giveaway. I want to share the results of the Hungry Hobby survey so that you know what to expect from Hungry Hobby in 2019. Plus, don’t miss the instructions for the flash giveaway at the bottom!
How often do you visit the blog?
Most of you said 2+ times per week. I typically post 5 times a week, but in 2019 I’m going to make the goal 4 times a week. This is based on wanting to create more high-quality content you guys requested in the types of posts (see below.) Not to say I will never post five days a week, just that the goal will be 4 days a week. Likely the posts will be Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday OR Thursday, and Fridays.
What type of posts do you like the most and want to see more of?
Based off of these results I’m thinking of organizing blog posts as follows:
Mondays and Tuesdays – Recipes or Nutrition Posts
Wednesday or Thursday – Everyday life stuff – like the day in the life type posts/recent eats/ etc….
Fridays – Should I bring back the Friday Favorites series? Recap types of workouts? What do you guys want to see on Fridays? Do you want a series or should I keep it random?
What types of recipes do you want to see more of in 2019?

Flash Giveaway
You guys gave me a ton of ideas on what to write about, A TON! I’ve scheduled post topics through March, but I want to make sure I’m on the right track. So, tell me what are your burning questions? What do you google? What did Sally at the gym say you should do but you aren’t sure? TELL ME!
Carb cycling. What is all the hype about?
OMG YES this is a GREAT POST! I’m adding that to the calendar!
I’m recovering from a c section- best ways to rebuild strength and core. How many calories and what does that look like as a breastfeeding mom? And I love all the baby posts ( can you tell I’m also a new mom? I have an almost 11 week old baby boy)
OMG they are the same age! Congrats! I can definitely speak to the calories question!
I’m constantly checking nutritional values and benefits of foods to make educated decisions.
