  • How often do you visit ADBB?

    I can't help but notice that a bunch of the people that joined ADBB about the same time as me (June 200 are no longer visibly active on the site, and truth be told, I haven't been posting lately either. I guess it's to be expected that after three months a percentage of us have fell off the bandwagon, others have found new support groups and still others (like me) have worn out on the repeated questions from newer users and have stepped back from the daily discourse (kudos to the long time users who continue to strongly support the newbies!).

    Although I'm not posting as often as I used to, I still frequent the site at least once a day just to scan for interesting articles, search for a recipe, or see if any friends have made new posts. I'm wondering how often others are still checking out the site even if they are not posting anything. In the words of Pink Floyd, "Is there anybody out there?"

      I like sharing info and experiences and having others share theirs. It is A LOT better than going it alone.

        Re: How often do you visit ADBB?

        I reregistered in May of this year...but I'm an "oldie" because I had a different user name before and had to leave the board for life reasons.

        Lessons learned and I'm learning them all again as I go.

        I'm glad like cleared up and I've been enjoying the support of the board since.

        And I'm especially glad to see strong supports like you, Eric

            It's been come and go for me - practically lived in here for awhile, then gone awhile, now, whenever I get a chance, without going overboard.

            This and the fine peeps and lessons are frequently in mind, so I don't stray too far. And a PM will always drag me in!

              I joined back in 2006. Used to post quiet often since I was in that period when you ask silly questions about induction - can I eat this, can I eat that, does toothpaste contain sugar? Now I post rarely since I feel guilty about being off diet. I still keep lurking in Before/After pics and journal stats though.

                I joined in 2007 but didn't post much until May of this year. I've not been posting much lately except in the challenges because summer is the busiest time of year for me, (we own a commercial orchard), but soon I intend to be here quite a bit because this place is exactly what I've always needed to keep me accountable to myself and others in my life. I love Atkins and I love this board!!!

                    Hmm....that's 30,101 post divided by 4 years and then divide that number by 365 days (for a year) and you post roughly 20.6 posts a day, Jimmiejo. I'd believe it was a lot more than that with all that you do!

                        I joined and started this WOE 9 months ago. I visit every day but rarely post unless there is a specific topic about which I have experience or knowledge to share. I do read a lot and gain lots of valuable info from the posters on here.

                            Registered Aug. 2 this year and post daily; this board is what keeps me motivated! My husband is supportive but he's not doing Atkins or going to the gym, so I need the feedback I get here; I also love reading everyone else's posts. It's inspirational and so informative.

                              I joined in May of 2004 and have reached my goal a few times now haha. I had kiddos and had to loose it all again. This site has been wonderful!!!
                              I had to choose that I do not post often because honestly I have reached my goal, and although I do try to come and help answer questions and give back some of the help that was once given to me I just do not have the time with my husband being gone. We are military and he is out on a ship right now, meanwhile I am at home with the 3 kiddos. I hope to show more support when things get settled!
