Hoping to join y'all!

[flbeachbum]

Hi there~

I've been reading some posts and this board looks full of support ~ and that's what I need a lot of.

I joined WW's on August of 2000...and lost 70lbs since. I have yo-yo'd for the past 6 mths..putting back on 25lbs. I recently re-joined WW's 9 weeks ago...had lost 12lbs but then went to Universal and Islands of Adventure..and gained 3lbs back..not to bad=)

I am ready to finally get to goal though. After almost 3 years of fooling around..getting to comfortable with my weight and not reaching goal...I'm ready to kick some butt now and get there.
I still have about 45lbs to go..sigh.

So, I"m hoping to get to know y'all better and post often. Any rules, info, etc that I need to know about?

Here's to feeling Tiggerific!!!

TTFN~ Kari

Hi, flbeachbum! I’m really glad to hear that you will be joining my support group. I’ll make you a deal, we’ll help and support you in your endeavor and all we ask in return, is that you help and support <i>us</i>. Does sound like a good deal?

It’s great to see you here on WISH. We love having new people take the WISH challenge. It’s more a case of “the more the merrier” rather than “misery loves company” because there is no misery here on WISH, it isn’t allowed. I think it’s even written in the bylaws somewhere

You may add the WISH member clipart to your signature, if you wish. There is a very helpful post telling you how to do that <b>HERE</b>. The WISH clipart is exempt from the DIS clipart restrictions, isn’t that great? We start at zero weight loss when we take the challenge, regardless of how much weight we may have lost before and then every time we lose 5 pounds we get to trade up to a new clipart. It’s really quite motivating and a lot of fun

After you do that, will you post to the WISH challenge thread? You will find that <b>HERE</b>. That helps us keep track of all our WISHers, I would hate to leave you off the list.

We have lots of WISHers following the WW point system and they love it. Any questions you may have about the program will receive quick answers, all you have to do is ask.

Our support group is made up of caring and fun people who follow all kinds of eating plans. The support is always there when you need it. We cheer each other on here and look for silver linings in every situation. It just helps to smile when you are working hard to get smaller, don’t you think?

Get ready to reach your goals and have a lot of fun. I’m so glad that you are a WISHer now, you’re part of the family

Welcome to WISH!!!

It is so nice to have another WW'er join our ranks and especially one who has already had so much success. This is a great place to get support. I would not have been nearly as successful without the great people here.
