Well, I want to say thank you! Thank you for 9 years of a wonderful place to meet friends, find information, keep it real, and mostly you have help me find myself and finally find my way in an overwhelming diet world.
I am not the most prolific poster, but I am an avid reader and this is one of the best sites on the web. You have done an amazing job and I would like to say congratulations for a job well done, and wish you all the best in whatever the world wide web will bring you.
What Suzanne, Jennifer, and Amy created here - the amazing part, can't be bought, sold or owned - not even by the sisters who created it. The virtual "place" is a tangible asset that can be bought, sold, and owned - but the very heart, the amazing part has a life of it's own (perhaps even much different than any of the sister-parents could have predicted).
The ownership of the virtural "place" has changed (months and months ago), but the best part of 3FC can't be owned - its members and the magic we create together. A church, a school, a home isn't the building, it's the people, and that's true of 3FC as well.
3FC will continue to change and develop - hopefully for the better, but the quality of that growth and development I suspect will have more to do with its members than its ownership.
Joining the chorus - Thanks for the vision to grow 3FC to the place it is now.
And thanks for the vision to secure its future. Ten years is a looooong time to carry a site this big.
I have positive expectations of the future of 3FC; the Internet is changing, the economy is changing, all of us here are changing. But I suspect that the supportive attitudes of the contributors here will ride the changes to continue making this site a joy.
Thank you all so much We greatly appreciate what you've said and hope you know that it's members like you that make this place so special! We'll still be here, no matter what, and look forward to many more years with all of you as we all reach our goals and maintain for life
Thanks for all your hard work!!! What a wonderful service you have provided for sooo many people! I hope you enjoy the idea that you have had a hand in positively changing so many lives!
I also agree with all of the above statements ... this is a wonderful 'virtual' meeting place that you "sisters" have created here -- for which I am very grateful! The best part is that I have been able to meet so many nice people here ... thanks!
Thank you, everybody! This really warms my heart to read! We are excited to be able to relax a little and enjoy the forum. All of your mods and admins will stay the same, and we can all carry on like always have.
I'd like to say thank you to all of the moderators who put in so much of their own time to help keep the wheels running smooth. Without the dedication of them, as well as the best members on the internet, we wouldn't have this forum as we know it.
