One thing I know for sure....

...this Board Rocks!

And I appreciate each of you who encourages, contributes, shares, discloses your ups and downs, questions, answers, sympathizes, empathizes, vents, journals, admits to weaknesses, champions successes, offers compassion or "chimes in" in any way.

I love to come here and to get to know all of you better. Thank you. You make my world "bigger", the journey easier, and the load lighter!!

Isn't it amazing how you start to become so "close" to the people here?? I find myself referring to people on the forum as "My friend so n so" and then my hubby says "WHo" and I say "You know, so n so from the diet forum". I love it here, too.

This forum is instantly welcoming to new people too. That is so important considering what we are all here for. Our weight loss is so hard as it is. So much easier with support.

I love it here, too. Other people don't always understand how I can call all these people my friends even though I've never met them.

And I appreciate that even when we do disagree, it's always done respectfully and doesn't degenerate into nastiness. I've seen that happen on other boards.

This forum is a Godsend to me. There's no one in my REAL life that understands what we go through.

I totally agree. I've always been the "fat friend" so I never had a close friend who completely understood how it feels to be overweight.

This board is a vital component of my MF plan!

I'd never have made it this far without this forum! I consider so many people on this forum "friends". I love helping the new people too, If any of my struggles can help someone, it's all worth it!
