Over at Benny’s, one of the forums is for weight loss. Last week, one of my Disney pals, who is also in rescue, decided she had “too much junk in her trunk” and was going to get serious about getting healthier. She asked if she could invite people to the private weight loss forum.
I made her a moderator.
And last weekend, I found a great script at a reduced price for journaling weights, exercise and food intake. Photos can also be uploaded. I’m hoping this helps people who take advantage of it to actually view their progress and see how their bodies are changing. Got that set up with a few minor changes from the author (who offered to give me a free copy of the upgrade).
I also found a ticker that can be used. It’s actually for pregnant women or women who just had babies, but it works well for us. Since so many people were having a problem getting it to work on the forums as a sig file, I had to figure out how to save screen shots as jpegs. But I got it done and now, the tickers work nicely.
Anyway, it seems to be fairly popular. People are posting, asking question, sharing stories. The support will be nice.
I swore after my last big weight loss, that I wouldn’t buy new larger pants ever again. And it’s about time. I won’t do it. It’s time to cut back on the junk food and downsize my portions.
