Let's do the usual:

name(age), where you are from (a general "west coast, Australia, etc will do), How long you have been on the beach, and what can we do to make this board a better place to visit?

Dana (21), from Alberta, Canada. I've been on the beach since December 8th (my daughter's 14 month birthday). I can't think of anything to make this board a better place. It's already a fast paced high energy board. And I love weekly challenges!!

I read the requests for more folders, Susan. This board is most definitely a work in progress! We needed to change the folders, but how many and what is the question! It's still a great board and KUDOS to you and Mel for taking so much time already (and more in the future) reorganizing it! Thumbs Up

Cyndie!!! You did it! I remember when I finally broke into the 190s, and you were so excited for me and looking forward to it yourself. Yeah, you're there. Cool, isn't it? I'm so happy for you! Keep it up.

Jill, 38, Connecticut, on the beach since Aug. 28, going on four months.

I love the board, though I find it overwhelming. I think Mel and Sue are doing such a great job!!

What I have a hard time with the board is keeping up, and not letting myself get overwhelmed by the sheer volume. My suggestion is mainly not to raise the number of folders. I also think a link to a FAQ section would be great, and perhaps a message (it would have to be bumped frequently) that refers newbies to the link before they ask questiions, would be a great idea. That would probably cut down on a lot of volume. Also, there are two sections on exercise. Can they be combined? Of course, I'm not exercising, so I feel bad for even suggesting this! :-)

I would also change:

"Successes and Setbacks" to just "Successes"

"Fun and Games" to "Fun, Games, and OTs"

"Following the Phases"... divide into "Phase I: recipes, ideas, and support" and "Phase II and III: recipes, ideas, and support"

"Chit Chat" to "Beyond the FAQS: General South Beach Concerns"

Get rid of "Meals, Recipes, and More"

Jill K.

P.S. I still love the board no matter what. Just throwing in a few more ideas.

Thanks for your suggestion, whether I ask for them or not, I welcome any opinions. I'm really not having a problem with phase one(although, i did have some Thai food last night - but i made sure it didn't contain anything i'm not suppose to have). i guess my thought is, if i'm not having a hard time sticking to it, why not stick to it for one more week(ending this saturday). i mean afterall as of sunday i had only lost about 2.5 lbs. anyhow, i'm going to see what this saturday brings me, and then go from there.

were you just suggesting that i move on to phase two so that it's not so tough? or was there another reason?

thanks for your help - i'm just trying to make some headway before i move on. although this week isn't such a great week, cause i'll be getting my period on sunday, so i'm not sure how or if that will affect things.
