The MakeMeThinner Support Forum

I've been away from alot of the world lately. This board........family.......friends.......myself. It is about time that I become a part of the whole once again. Time to reconnect to the light that has shined so brightly in days gone by.
Ok, enough of the metaphysical mumbo jumbo........look out world........Brian is back after a long and somewhat unsuccessful layoff. I hope everyone is well........happy..........and healthy.
I have two great loves in my life............my wife and myself. Time to impress the hell out of both of them.

Hello Brian - we must have just crossed paths as I started coming to the boards late December and finally made the MF committment on Jan 15th. Nice to meet you and hope to see alot of you here.

I'm very glad that you regrouped and re-committed!!! Your wife must be very proud of you!

Welcome back, Brian! There's always a home for you here. Be proud of yourself for restarting and getting back on the horse; you could've chosen to just ignore your weight, your health, and how you feel-- but you didn't! You chose to get healthy, find friends, and get it done-- and that means a lot. We promise to help however we can! :hug:

Bri ~

Hey, Man! :yippee:

So happy to have you back! :hmmm:

I thought for sure we'd have to have the MakeMeThinner pool party some place else this summer. Get out the chlorine, vacuum and clean the algae outta the pool 'cuz the MakeMeThinner Family is coming your way for some :shades:

summer sun and :toast:

party fun! (No worries, it'll be BYOS party)

Bri, it is never too late to get back on track. Never. We have plenty of room on the train to Thinsville for more flabulous folks like you.

How's Krissie?

I'm with Scrabbler7 with the :whip:

harmage part - sheesh! 9 pounds - you even impressed me! :tongue:

BYOS=Bring Yer Own Shake

Aw heck,

Brian, you've insired me to start posting again too! I've been reading but not writing lately, as I've been kind of on and off program...better than completely and totally off, I suppose. So anyway, I didnt really feel comfortale posting since i wasnt doing as well as i should have been, but i got back on track today and plan on staying here. So, back to posting, it's been a while! I'm glad you're back with me, although i doubt I must say i doubt ill lose a fabulous 9 lbs by next monday. I'm eating a pudding right now and working away at that water! Good luck to you!

Hi, coco ~ welcome back.

Hunny Bunny, it is NEVER too late to get back on the Program or to rejoin the MakeMeThinner Family.

None of us ever could ever be shocked to have someone slip out the back door and re-enter at a later time through the side door - professional foodies have been on numerous diets and meal plans during the course of their lives. We understand…very well.

BeenThereDoneThat. Until this time.

Glad to have you here. Let’s gett’er done!
