You are one very special lady! You always take the time to offer support and just reading your posts makes me smile.


I'll be back later with more!

nativetxn is a wonderful person who always finds the postive in every situation. I love the way she 'summarizes' the weekly check-in. Thanks nativetxn for all your support on this board!

This is so hard -- because I cherish so many people here!

BUT thanks so much to nativetxn. Katholyn -- you saved me last night. I really enjoyed talking with you on IM while I wasn't able to post on the boards. I could have been eating --- but I was chatting with you instead! YOU saved the day girl!

PrincessVija started out as a WISH buddy to me early last year but has become a wonderful friend! I hope that everyone here can find a bond like we developed together!

And a big thankyou to all of the newbies for joining our group recently --- I am looking forward to learning more about all of you!

 

[elisebutt]

Katholyn, because she showed me the way over here.

And Karen because she appreciates my sense of humour!!

 

[TigH]

Aww, you guys are making me blush!

Partyofsix (Tammy) you have such a positive outlook! I love the way you write, it's just like you are sitting here talking to ME! I feel like I could visit you at your house and you'd welcome me or anybody like we were family.

Tiggerlover (Debbi) You are such an inspiration for me! Your posts are always full of lots of spunk (for lack of a better word). You are so determined and you have motivated me to stick to my WW plan. I am proud to follow in your footsteps!

Tlgoblue (Tracy) My drinking buddy (ha!) It's fun to meet someone who I feel like I have so much in common with! Your posts make me laugh because I think you must be reading my mind sometimes with the things you come up with!

Glo (Glo) You are the queen of determination!!! Although we haven't met in real life, I can say that I have never met anyone as determined to reach a goal as you are. There is something stirring inside you, really, you are going through a metamorphasis just like a butterfly and you are on the verge of being a NEW person. It has been very interesting to watch you change over these last few weeks (months?) Reaching your goal is going to be so life changing, I think you will probably be in shock for a little while when you get there. Like, "Oh my goodness, I FINALLY did it! Now how do I feel?" What's it going to be like to finally love yourself unconditionally? You are giving yourself a tremendous gift!

This is fun! I will be back for more!!!! Everyone here is wonderful!!!! There are just too many great things to say about everyone!

 

[faith]

Many thanks to those of you who took the time to respond when I posted about my Dh's success. It gave him a smile.
A special thanks to all the Wishers!!!! The support on here is fantastic.

 

[PRINCESS VIJA]

There are a bunch of people who have been absolutely wonderful, so to everyone on the WISH I say thanks for the motivation!

Wovenwonder already described that we started out as PM buddies. God blessed me that day when Jody came into my life!!! We have become great friends, and I cherish her friendship. She is very wise and has helped me through many a frustrating moment. She is incredibly generous and has a heart of GOLD . She is a blessing and we are all better for knowing her!

Jiminy102, thanks for always posting the WISH check in thread, it has been a lifesaver for many!

Nativetxn, you take the time to answer many posts, and I appreciate your kind words and encouragement.

Kelsie, very creative!!! Your WISH challenge has gotten many people motivated and on the right track.

THANKS TO EVERYONE!!!!1

 

[DiznEeyore]

I'm still new, so I haven't gotten to know many of you "in depth" yet, but I just want to say how motivational you all are -- this is a super support board!!

 

[John In Illinois]

First and foremost, I want to thank EVERY ONE OF YOU for at one time or another providing me the boost I needed to keep trudging forward in my "quest for less"


Then I would absolutely HAVE to single out Kelsie...............because without her kick in my fat butt, I would never have even gotten started.



THANK YOU!
THANK YOU!
THANK YOU!

 

[Beanie]

Great thread, Kelsie!!

First I would have to say, thanks Kelsie for having this board started! I find it is my new favorite board now and I love coming here each day!

Also thanks to Kath, who without her encouragement, I wouldn't have joined WISH. She has been the best form of support so far for me and I just love talking to her each day about goals and what we will do in December when we meet up again!!

Finally I must say OhMom is a wonderful person who was the first WISHer to send me a PM and it had beautiful words of encouragement for me! Thanks OhMom for really making my day!

 

[Cthia]

A Thanks to All the W.I.S.H. Members.

I come hear daily to read posts and you are keeping me motivated to keep on my excercise routine when at times I have wanted to give up.

There are so many wonderful people out there that have been very inspirational and helpful.

Thank You.

[KathyTX]

Omg, I'm almost in tears from all the love I'm seeing going around here!!

It's hard to know where to start...

Party of Six- Tammy, you are an inspiration to me in many different ways. You are Wonder Woman, Supermom, cheerleader and my little ray of sunshine. Your happy approach to life lifts my spirits everytime I read your words!

Katholyn- What can I say? You are the glue that keeps this group going. I am amazed at the energy and love you pour into feeding our souls and embracing all of us as part of this group. You make me feel special.

Glo, Kelsie, JohninIllinois - You are all real "class acts" and wonderful boosters for us losers.

All my W.I.S.H. friends- this is an incredible collection of really, really nice folks. I love how generous everyone here is with advice, encouragement, sympathy and joy.

I just W.I.S.H. I could meet all of you in real life!

(Hmmm.... will there be a W.I.S.H. meet someday?)

 

[nativetxn]

Oh Kelsie, I don't think you really want me mention all of the different WISHers who have been a special help to me. Have you seen some of my replies to the check in thread? This thread would be pages and pages long if I did that.

As a matter of fact, I was thinking about this very topic last night before I fell asleep.

I think I need to make a confession. Everyone who has mentioned me on this thread? Guess what? My motives are purely selfish.

Every person who ever posts on WISH has been a help to me. Every person who checks in on the weigh in thread each week has motivated me. Everyone who answers a question or recipe or has a kind word here on WISH, has been a help to <b>me</b>

Your very participation on this board is a <b>help to me</b>!

See? I told you, I have to confess that I am selfish.

Kelsie, your WISH challenge jerked me up out of my unhealthy ways and gave me a new motivation and enthusiasm for losing weight. Thank you!

glo, you are a shining example of success on Atkins and determination.

All of the men who post on WISH. I admire your successes and really appreciate you hanging around with all of us women, even though you are severely outnumbered here.

TigH, you are so welcoming and helpful to new WISHers, you are a ray of sunshine every day.

Wovenwonder, thanks for your positive attitude and presence on WISH, I know it helps me a lot.

PartyofSix, you are an amazing example of determination of success for me. Besides you are just so darned cute and loveable.

KathyTX, you are always ready with encouragement and kind words.

Hannosmom, you have a wonderful postitive attitude and you are so brave. Another fellow Texan, I feel a strong bond with you.

Believe, you are so determined to stay near goal, you are a great motivation for me.

I can't single out people here on WISH, truly I cannot. There are too many of us here. I think that everyone on this board has had a kind word for me at one time or another. I don't want to leave anyone out. This may be considered a cop out but I thank you all. Thank you for being here. Thank you for helping me and others. Thank you for caring.

Katholyn

Debbie (Debbie!) I LOVE the cute little cheerleader smiley people thingies that you put in your posts. They always put a huge smile on my face. It's a very special touch to add to your already positive and encouraging posts!
