Hi there. Is this the 'original' 100 Pounds or More To Go group from about 2 years ago?
I know new members are here but I was just wondering. How great that would be to have such a wonderful group still active and helping women to get healthy. I feel like a newbee with this site so please bear with me. I dont know any one! But I am sure whoever is in charge is doing a great job. Congratulations!

The original board helped me learn a lot about drinking water, the need to move my body, eating right and I met some wonderful caring ladies and one of my best friend's through the grace of God and this website. Plus I lost and kept off the 50 lbs that I lost while I was active in this group. I dont know if any of the old crowd are here and remember me but here I am!

Yesterday I celebrated my 44th birthday with my husband and children. My family brought me the book The Maker's Diet and journal so I am reading through that again. I am a Christian, Canadian and always interested in encouraging others to the best that the Lord has for them.

I really liked this group so I decided to search for it again and start back with a more disciplined try for 2006. Time to get back on my journey to lose the rest of this weight!!

Exercise of choice (walking) is harder for me in the wintertime but that is an excuse if I ever knew one! Since I have my Walk Away The Pounds video collecting dust bunnies in the basement!!! Oh the shame!!
:)

But I am all about new beginnings so here I am.
Going to try and get acquainted with the board a bit and look forward to joining any challenges that you are for 2006.

Happy New Year and may God richly bless you and yours in 2006.

Hello, Hy!

I am a newbie again too! LOL! It has been about four years since I was here before, but I too learned a lot about water, daily exercise and daily support and fun. My favorite thing was the travel group (We added any lbs. lost that week as miles to our virtual walk across America. So fun!).

Welcome back. I look forward to getting to know you better.
