Topic: RE: Tia ????
Or maybe you could just disappear and allow this board to become what it once was - a great source of support for anybody that needed it. I don't know, nor do I really care, who you are or what your exact beef is with Tia, but I do know this much - Tia had been a very supportive individual for dozens of folks around here for a very long time. It was people like she, Aaron, Heather, Darla, Nicole, Cira and many others that made the Maryland board one of the most active and supportive boards on all of Obesity Help.
If you have a problem with Tia, try sending her a personal message and hashing things out. If that's not possible, then how about respecting the others from the Maryland area that need the support but don't want the drama that you're bringing with you. If you feel that strongly in your opinion and are not embarassed by your stance, then why create a troll account to hide your true identity? Be a man/woman and stand up for what you believe in. Never mind, that would just create more drama. Maybe my initial idea was better after all, just disappear so we could attempt to bring back the regulars and get this board to where it once was. I, for one, am back for good. Tia, I invite you back and need your help to start bringing back the old timers crew. Next step - the exercise thread!!!

Topic: RE: Start over again
Hey pregnant lady!!! I think you are so right. I don't really come here anymore but I probably should. I am doing really really well. I'm extremely happy with how things are going in my life. I have started to lose weight again, and very close to the elusive 199! I will do it in the next couple months I'm sure. I hope to be close to my goal weight by my bday in march. I am dating someone new who is really wonderful. We are having a great time together and even went to the sanity rally this weekend. I guess now that I am out living life, I am not here to need so much support. but I know that I have some to give so I will try to show up more often!
Topic: Here's where I am at
So, I am 8 days away from my C-section and I am petrified. Not of the surgery itself. After gastric bypass, gall bladder removal, hernia repair, tummy tuck, car crash - surgery doesn't faze me. It's the fact that in about 10 days, they'll send me home with a tiny human being and expect me to keep him alive and turn him into some sort of responsible human being - that freaks me out!!!
I am trying to think past that and make goals for myself:
- how will I get back to pre-pregnancy weight
- how will I make sure my marriage doesn't take a back seat
- how will I make sure I don't take my frustrations out on the baby
- how will I make sure that I have time for me too
Jeff and I are equally excited, scared, worried, happy about this new event in our lives and hopefully, we'll make it together. We celebrate 5 years of being married in December and I can truly say that every year has amde us stronger. Oh, we fight, we argue, we disagree. Anybody who says they don't in their marriage has blinders on. But, we don't put each other down, we don't abuse each other verbally, mentally or physically and we always always hug after an argument. Works for us :-)
That's my life right now, what's new in yours?

Topic: Start over again
How about instead of all the posts about "where have the good old days gone?" posts, we start new posts about support, about questions, about where we are in life? How about we stop rehashing what happened before and just effing move on?
It's not what was said or the drama that keeps some of us away (I don't even know what drama is being talked about). It's the fact that everytime I log on, that's ALL somebody's bringing up. I have posted updates a couple times and responded to other people's updates.
So, let's start a series of posts aimed at making things move forward instead of looking at yesterday and bemoaning the absence of people or topics. I think people will come back if they see the board mopving forward in a positive manner.

Topic: RE: Where'd everybody go?
Andy, I am unsure of what has really happened here. All I know is that I tried to support and encourage others. I am unsure why people sat back and talked about me. For what reason I don't know and I really do not have time for the games. There were some nice people here and then bang it seems stuff blew up. It is so sad as we all need help and as you said this is a life long journey. All is OK with me I lost my Mom to lung cancer in March so it has been a hard year for me. I am trying to lose weight and still want surgery but I think I must get over my Mom's passing first. Take care and I hope all is well in PA. Julie

Mom I hope you rest in Peace knowing that you were loved and will be missed. Keep love alive in your
heart as I know I will. You are now an 
and I know you will be looking down on us from above......... I am OK.......

Yes, SOSUREOF ME, please DO tell us who you are!!! You posted on the Sex Board in an attempt to stir up trouble - are you doing the same here?
Very interesting!!! Are you also the person who sent me some PM's, trying to cause problems between Jon and me?
Man up! Show yourself and tell me exactly what your beef is with me!

Topic: RE: Where'd everybody go?
Andy -
I had deactivated, but opened a new account so that I could specifically respond to this. As Julie stated, SOMEONE did talk about her behind her back - and one of those persons was me. HOWEVER, I did NOT state that she was mentally disturbed or otherwise, but I did state that she was annoying in some of the things she posted.
That was SO wrong of me - and actually, I outted myself to Julie, threw myself on her mercy, asked her to forgive me, and then stepped back to allow her to decide to forgive me or not. I'm not sure that I would have had the roles been reversed.
HOWEVER, someone continued the bs, telling Julie more and more, some of which I know was lies.
Like I said, there was drama, I was part of it, which I really regret, because, for the MOST part, this board WAS all about support, but I owned it, admitted to it and asked for forgiveness.
I can't really do anymore than that!!!!
