To all PT Diet Buddies folks, and anyone new who may want to join

[popcornbird]

As most of you know, Ally cat's mommy started a PT Diet Group on Yahoo Groups a while back, for those PT'ers who wish to lose weight, exercise more, and just live a healthier lifestyle. So far it was going great at yahoo groups, but with Camcampup and others posting about their new forums, I decided to check the site up.................and well, ended up making a forum of my own. I have talked to Ally cat's mom about this, and she agreed that it would be nice to move there.

For those of you who are already members of the PT Diet Group, please click on the link below and register.

Also, be sure to post and let us know what you think. The yahoo groups is currently still in use, and I think it will be until everyone gathers up at the board.

For those of you who haven't joined before, I'd just like to tell you that so many people have already begun to lose weight, and almost all of us are exercising more and feeling healthier, thanks to the help and encouragement of fellow PT'ers! If you wish to lose weight, eat healthier, or just live a healthier lifestyle, feel free to join us! Newbies are welcome from PT, however, please join only if you are really serious and will be posting. I have made most of the boards private and only viewable to members, because to some, diet issues are a sensitive topic, and some of our members wish to keep it private, so if you won't be posting for a certain amount of time, your user name will be deleted. Even if you're not going to join, please check out my board anyway! I was having so much fun messing around with the colors and making a logo until I finally settled with what I have. So everyone, be sure to check it out!

PopcornBird,

Because I don't have time to even keep up with Pet Talk (and that makes me crazy) I don't know if I will be able to join your group. But please know that I have joined you in spirit and in your goal. I have just determined that the cholesterol lowering medication I take has an increased risk of serious side effects when taken in conjunction with another medication I am on. So I have gotten very serious about 1. Losing weight and 2. Eating even more healthy than I currently do, all in an effort to be able to reduce the amount of medication I take.

Dr. Phil has recently started a weight loss program on his show and he has a new book out. A few of his points of guidance have been helpful to me.

Granted I'm only into this one week as of today, but I have made some progress. Oh, well, maybe I can join and see if I can keep up with the rest of you. I need all the help I can get.

I checked the board out. It looks great, I love the colors. Good luck to all you PT dieters.

[Ally Cat's Mommy]

PCB has done a really fantastic job on this! If you feel like being inspired, or need some support in your quest for a healthier body and mind, please join us!

It's already working for me!!!!

[popcornbird]

Thanks everyone, and I see that you have joined Rachel! Welcome!

Now where is moderator #3? CATAPAULT? Get over here!

[RubyMutt]

Great job on the forum, PCB! I'm going to join right now I've been meaning to post a "favorite healthy recipe' thread on the Yahoo group board, but now I can do it here since it has it's own designated section Very cool.

I must say, I love the PT Diet Buddies group I could never get motivated to live a more healthy lifestyle, but now I finally am! In only 1 month I'm seeing a lot of improvements

I joined, thanks PCB.

...

Sorry, I'm a bit confused. Will this board be replacing the Yahoo board, or running in addition to it?

[popcornbird]

It will replace it because this type of forum is easier to use and more organized. I meant that that's still in use until everyone finds out, because there *might* be people still posting there who don't know of this yet, however, we're all moving here now.

Ps. I forgot to add the calorie/carb counting sections, so I will do that shortly.

[Miss Meow]

OK, thanks. I'll go set up an account

Me too.

[RubyMutt]

Is there a place on the new forum like the database on the Yahoo group? I love using that for my weekly food and exercise logs.

[popcornbird]

I'm still trying to figure out if there's a way I can make a database type of thing, but for now, the keeping track board is where you'll be making personal threads and keeping track of how you're doing. I guess that can work as a database. We couldn't make any more databases on yahoo anyway because we went over the limit.

[RubyMutt]

Alrighty, thanks

I need to loose weight for my back, but I just cannot stick to my diet... HELP!
He he, I found help: this forum looks great PCB!! I joined! Now, let the kilo's melt (it's a pity they don't melt away by chatting )
