Alright- so I've been coming here for a few years at this point.....can't remember when I came here first, but am pretty sure it was just around the time I turned 30 ;-)


I came here looking for inspiration, and support. I stayed because of the posters!



How did you find us?


What's your favorite thing about the board?


Why do you come and post here?
Is it more for support and motivation- or something else?

How did you find us? Wow, I actually can't remember... I must have been surfing around looking for diet and fitness information though.


What's your favorite thing about the board? I like the fact that we're all around the same age going through similar experiences in our quest to be fit.

I love the support!

How did you find us? Through Miranda's signature. We both post over on the Fiction Lovers Board.


What's your favorite thing about the board? That it keeps me thinking about my health & fitness. Even if I'm not being terribly proactive about my health this board does keep it in the back of my mind. That I want to be healthy and fit I want to keep moving forward etc.

I love the fact that we're all pretty much in the same boat-- my hat truly comes off to all you 'mommies' out there too!

Great point Gretchen!!!


Plus I totally agree with the whole 'balance in your life' idea too!

Not too sure- I was posting on another board to start off (some community challenge I'd signed up for, think it was a walking one). Probably stumbled upon this place after the challenge.



What's your favorite thing about the board?


Several things; that we're all on the same path, perhaps going different directions and at different speeds but I believe the destination is the same place. I also love how easy going this board is....and how open everyone is to whatever someone else is doing.

It helps me to stay on track....not sure I'd have fitness and health in the forefront if I wasn't reminded of it each day. Plus, like Gretchen- coming here has become a habit!!

How did you find us? I had been posting on other ivillage boards and it occurred to me to check out the diet/fitness area since I was frustrated with my weight gain.


What's your favorite thing about the board? That everyone here is so nice, supportive and welcoming!


Why do you come and post here? Like others have said, it's a good way for me to keep physical health and fitness in the front of my mind and not on the backburner. I live very much with my mind and spirit but can forget that I am also a physical being! So this helps me nurture that aspect of myself. And I like that we're all in the same age range struggling with similar things.
