Question What is your opinion on this ???
We are starting a NEW YEAR with a new DETERMINATION as a group to make 2005 a SUCCESSFUL year.
I thought we might update and make a few small changes to our greeting.

Our Topic of the Day is no longer... "recently started". LOL ... I changed that some.
Plus I changed Wed Weigh in since we have incorporated the 2x2 to run Monday to Monday.
And since we have a seperate thread for recipes I changed Sunday to "Share your Success Sunday".

THESE ARE ONLY SUGGESTIONS .... I am asking what do you think?
I feel we need to update our greeting... what do you think ?
Be "gentle" with your criticism.
Here is a sample of what I had in mind.
----------------------------------------------------------


WELCOME !!!

We are a group of individuals who many weigh or have weighed 300+.
This group was formed to provide a safe place for others like us to find support and hope. We are aware of the distinct problems that come with weighing over 300 lbs.

But there is no weight requirement to belong.
We can all learn from each other.
We want to invite everyone to join us in our journey.
We share laughter and tears.
We share what works for us and what doesn't.
We often use a "Topic of the Day" for discussion.

Motivational Monday
Tuesday Tips
Wednesday Wish List .. and What you are doing to obtain it.
Thankful Thursday
FUN Friday ... don't wait until you lose your weight.
Sit-up Saturdays - any physical activity
Share your Success Sunday

These are not required topics ...just ideas to share.
We often find them very helpful.
We also share heartaches and fears ... joys and celebrations.

We have several extra threads going on simutaneously such as Monthly Challenges, Weekly Weigh-ins, Recipes, Bios, and more. Please feel free to check them all out.
We have a bi-weekly 2x2 Challenge.
Our goal is to lose 2 lbs in 2 weeks.
We have a long term goal of losing 300+ lbs within our 300+ group in 2005.

We have found this thread to be more than just a support group...
we have found it to become a home. We invite you to join us.

WELCOME!

Fine with me. (I'd noticed that "recently" thing myself and chuckled. It's been here longer than I have.!)

2cute, nice changes, and you are right, we have needed them for a while. I especially like the Wednesday Wish List. I'm not sure if I understand the very first line though?
