There was a thread hear a minute ago, now it is gone. Yikes, why did that happen? I am back and have been going to my WW meetings faithfully every week for the last 18 months. Almost 80 down and trucking towards goal. Let's hear from my friends -- Deb, Wolf, et al. Where ya at Rock? Rock where ya at? I am here!

Let's talk about weight and how to control it and manage it and maintain it when the time comes, for those of us still in losing mode. My personal opinion is that
the three major tools for me to make it to goal are journaling, exercise, and portion control, not necessarily in that order.....

Ms. Moderator - do you know where the other thread went or did someone put some shrooms in salad at lunch that are causing me to hallucinate>>> Har Har

Hi Rock! So good to hear from you! I was getting ready to send you an SOS email! Glad to hear that all is well and your journey is going well!

I believe Maintaining your goal weight is just as easy as losing, if not easier! I know, I know, I'm in a minority, I'm sure! I also believe that if you maintain your goal weight within 5 lbs. you are maintaining!

Let me tell you why I think it is easier a bit to maintain - you already have the tools or your Master's Degree in this healthy new lifestyle - you just have to continue to use them! And...it does get easier as now I am pretty much on auto pilot most of the time!

It will be 3 years maintaining at Goal for me come August 30th!

Was this what you were looking for ROCK or did I read your post wrong, which believe me HAPPENS!

So glad to hear from you! YIPPEE!!!! Rock is alive and well! YIPPEE!!!!

Dotti -- you are the queen of maintenance! Thanks for your encouraging words -- you have been such an inspiration to me and 100's, shoot thousands of others on this erstwhile journey. I have hit a plateau after being on the program for 18 months... and am working to get back on a steady 1 pound a week weight loss trek again. Thanks for your words of encouragement.

Glad to hear you are back on track! You are doing so awesome - always remember how far you have come - the rest will come, take my word for it! You are AWESOME Rock! I'm a-rooting for you Rock! Goal is YOURS!

I'm sneaking on the boytoy's computer to give a shout out to everyone!! For those who wanna know..my work lost their ISP because the ISP was bought and they haven't set up a new ISP yet, hence, WOLFANGEL is OUT of comission for awhile.

HI DOTTI, DEB, ROCK and KELLY..and everyone else. I miss you all, but I promise to be back, can't get rid of me THAT easily!

P.S. Dotti, you made Chicago headlines on the Steve Dahl show (afternoon radio program..very big radio star, Steve is!!) He's on WW and using your site for points!

See ya! Behave and DRINK YOUR WATER!

Nice seeing your post! Long time! Great to hear from you! Hope you get that ISP thing taken care of! It's a bummer being disconnected! Are you having serious withdrawals yet????

That is cool about the radio station - thanks for letting me know - I needed a pick me up!

You have a great rest of your week and hurry back online!

Rock - wanted to take this opportunity AGAIN to say hi and good for you for getting back OP!
