  1. Thanks so much for your advice, Phyl. How's life on the Big Island?
  2. Aloha! My husband and I recently relocated to Oahu from NY (not military, just looking for a change in lifestyle). As you can imagine, this has been an extremely emotional journey and unfortunately, my weight loss has come to a standstill (and some weight is creeping back on! EGADS!) I know it is from the overeating, eating the wrong things, and not exercising. I want to get back on the "bandwagon" and I believe the first step is finding a regular support group to attend. I live in Mililani and would love to find a group close to me, but I am willing to travel anywhere because that is how strongly I believe in the importance of a solid foundation of support. Thanks in advance and hope to meet some fellow bandsters!!!
  3. I have noticed that I can actually wrap a bath towel around my body (with a few inches to spare) and it covers everything.

  10. In keeping with the format of Sades' "Spring Into Weight Loss..." thread, I figured we would update the original list rather then start a completely new one each week. Please let me know if everyone is OK with this.

  11. The OP has every right to voice her opinion as well. Not everyone has to agree, but have the respect not to completely crush her, as has been the case. As has been stated above, if you don't like it, then don't read it. Practice what you preach.
  12. I completely support what you have to say! Bravo!!! :eek:
