    For me, I voted for support, and that was the major reason. One other one that I wouldn't have minded seeing as an option was the "Before and After" part of the BB. I mean, it is so inspiring to see the results that some of the members have had!!!

    This is an awesome place!!!

    Thanks to everyone who keeps this board up and running, from the owner, the admins, the moderators, and especially all of the people who post and keep this an active place!

    Original goal: Lose 30 lbs by Mar. 1st, 2006. I made it!!!

    Calling it GOAL at this point. I'm happy with where I am now and hope to stay there, or maybe even take it down a little more.

        I voted "other". After being on Atkins for 6 weeks and lurking for a month of that, I felt the need to register to maintain my journey.

        It never ceases to amaze me of how easy and how effective this ***diet*** is!!




        I have since re-gained a bit of weight, but that is soon to be coming off again!

          I lurked for a long time and read all the advice but after a while I realized that I had my own questions and I wanted to get to know some of the people who are in here. You can't do that when you're standing outside looking in. Everyone's been very supportive since I joined but, well, you can't support someone when you don't know they exist, right? I've lurked on other boards over the years, but this is the first one I've joined.
