    Hello everyone, we are off to start a new week and for the second time this month the HubMob topic will be mirroring the  Helpful Health Hubs contest and we are going to be writing about Diets and Weight Loss.

    First of all a big thank you to all the Hubbers who contributed to last week's topic Natural and Alternative Health.  We managed a total of  102 Hubs.  Some of those hubs were HubMob hubs only, while others were both HubMob and Contest hubs. 

    The important thing to remember this week is that if your hub is ONLY a HubMob hub, you just need to follow the instructions like any other week.  But, if you qualify for the contest and want to enter your hub in the HubMob  you should follow the usual procedure for joining the HubMob which means starting your hub from my answer the request link, making sure that you publish your hub on the selected contest sub-topic for that day.  Any Hub that is in the right sub-subtopic, and is eligible (word count, original content, time of first publication, etc.) should be set for the contest automatically.

    The Subtopics for this week are:
    Weight Loss
    Healthy Diets
    Choosing a Diet
    Low-Fat Diets or Low-Carb Diets
    Vegetarianism or Veganism
    Children's Diets
    Weight Loss Tips & Advice

    To join this week's HubMob please follow the steps below like any other week:

    1. YOU MUST START YOUR HUB CLICKING THIS LINK.  Choose the Answer the Request green button.  Choose the MAKE A HUB ABOUT IT option. 

    2. Choose a relevant title for your Hub to get a good ranking in the search engines.

    3. If necessary change the category on your hub to best suit your topic. 

    4. Include the HubMob RSS Feed in your hub: http://hubpages.com/question/41523/hubm … ew&rss        For more information on how to add the RSS feed to your hub you can click here

    5. Add the HubMob graphic below to your hub so that everyone who reads it will know that it is part of the official HubMob topic of the week.

    6. After you publish your HubMob Hub, come back to the forum and post a link to your hub with a brief description of what you wrote about and why.  Take advantage of the free publicity!


    If you are still not sure about what is a HubMob and the benefits of taking part in one I created this guide http://hubpages.com/hub/What-is-a-HubMo … o-join-one  please feel free to come up with any questions if you have any doubts left.

            Each day's topic runs from noon to noon California/Pacific time.  If you are Eastern time US, it would be 3 p.m.  Today's topic, Weight Loss, will close out at 3 p.m. tomorrow for you.

                Hey,no need to be rude. Has it occurred to you that not everyone is hovering over the forums, ready to answer every question?

                The easiest way to work out when to post is to follow the official contest thread.  Jason always makes a post to announce when the day's contest opens.  You can look at the time of his post, then you know you have around 23 hours to publish your Hub.

                Or you can look at the official contest page, it has a banner telling you what the current topic is.

                I'm in Australia, I don't even bother to calculate the time difference - I just rely on Jason's post.

                Unfortunately there is not someone available 24/24  7/7 to answer HubMob questions in the forum.  The HubMob team is formed by volunteers who happily give their free time to the Hubber's community to keep the HubMob going. Please a little bit of patience and understanding wouldn't be bad.

                    I have a question you can help me with.  I wrote a hub on weight loss, partly because I clicked on the "contest" link at the top of my HubPages homepage and the topic looked interesting to me.  I didn't make it a HubMob hub.  Does that disqualify it from the contest?  There was no mention of HubMob in the contest rules that I saw or noticed.

                    Now I see it's a HubMob topic, too, and (just like me), I'm a day late and a dollar short in making it a HubMob hub.  It's published already.  It's already got comments on it, even.

                      Originally the plan was to mirror contest topics with HubMob, as an alternative for those not eligible for the contest.  Some of those who are eligible for the contest, including me, have decided to enter contest hubs through Princessa’s HubMob link. 

                      IF you want your hub to be a contest hub AND a HubMob hub, start it from Princessa’s link, categorize it correctly, and publish it within the time frame for the contest topic.  HubMob hubs will be contest-eligible, and will be in the contest topic RSS.  You do not need to do anything else.

                              The dangers of meat consumption are still widely ignored. The reason I am a vegetarian is not so much because I feel sorry for the poor animals ... but because eating meat is the biggest health hazard today. Watch the film "Foods That Kill" by Dr. Michael Klaper and be informed.
