As Herman Munster would say: "Darn Darn Darn Darn!". I was hoping for Chicago. I guess the OH Event won't come to Chicago. I was hoping it would come in 2015 for the last 4 or so years now and the way it looks like it'll never come to Chicago. It'll be awhile before I come back on this site again any time soon, that is if I come back again. If I do come back here again, I'll stick with my profile page for a long time. I guess things happen for a reason (I guess I have the (Al) Bundy Curse from "Married with Children" TV show. Good for the city that won, I'm happy for you.

Don't get me wrong, but I was really really hoping the OH Event would come to Chicago in 2015.

Hi Watson,

I voted for Chicago too. We just got out voted. Please tell me you are not leaving over this. We value you as a member and your success is off the charts. 

Would it be possible for you to come to NC?  Now I am depressed.

There's no way that I can make it to NC. I can't afford to, I'm on a very fixed income. Plus this site has gone down hill for me since I joined ObesityHelp (well...about two [2] years after I joined) five (5) years ago. To many changes over the five (5) years, things on here are starting to look & sound alike, everywhere on here like the forums (not much going on in them, the topics/questions seems to be alike [sounds  like each other, but put in a different ways] don't get me wrong on that). I really miss the chat-room that ObesityHelp use to have. Plus there were a lot of bad stuff that went on this site. There were people that I use to talk to on a daily basis and now I have seen them, talked to them, let alone heard from them in a very long time. Now a days the only stuff I do on here is the healthy tracker (food tracker & keeping track of my weight), and going onto my profile, now which I'm getting burnt out from it. This site use to be very active and now it's gone dull for me (don't get me wrong on that). I just need to get away from this site for awhile for now, that is if I decide to come back. Only time will tell. If I do decide to stay it only going to be for my profile & the health tracker.

Don't get me wrong, this is how I feel. I guess I need to take time off from ObesityHelp for the time being. I just hope I don't get thrown out from this site for what I said and how I feel about this site. I needed to vent all this out. Once again I just needed to vent that's all.

This really makes me sad. I was hoping for Chicago! I can't afford to go any where else! Oh well, I did go the one time it was in Chicago. I learned so much that weekend.

Hi Karen,

I voted for Chicago too. I consider Chicago my home and would have loved to see the event there. We didn't have enough votes.  Maybe next year.

Take care,

Kathy

That's to bad. I guess Chicago wasn't good enough. Ain't that a kick in the head ain't it Kathy?
