Thankful for this Site!

I am so thankful for this site. I have found it to be more supportive than my support group meetings. Don't get me wrong the people at the meetings are wonderful. However, I feel it is more geared toward the people who have had gastic bypass. Also, it is only once a month. This site really helps me stay focused. If I do have a day that is off....I just click on this site and read other posts. It keep me encourage to not get discouraged if the scale appears stuck.....as it has been for the past 5 days. I stay focused and keep working with the band. I highly recommend it! :frown:

    I feel exactly the same way - very thankful. I don't have access to any support groups and I always wondered what I was missing. I love this site, it keeps me going strong!

    So glad that you are here Dadkins8

    Yes I too love this site for the same reason as you. Do not be discourage you have hit a plateau as I have also. It's better to be at this plateau then having the scale going up awards. Before you know it the scale will move again down. As I always say we are a lot lighter what we use to be.

    keep up the great work. LOVE IT!!!
