BAF needs CPR, or a shock with those dam chest paddles

Life....and the boards, rotate in cycles.  BAF seems to be going through a downward cycle, much like our economy.  But there's still hope!  I'm sure we all will have time off over the next couple of weeks for the holidays, and the board postings will be even less.  Here's my suggestion:

Let's celebrate the holidays with family and friends and post on the boards as much as we can over the holidays.  January starts anew for everyone.  So let's all make a collective effort to get some real dialogue going again on BAF.  Let's all make an effort to post one topic at least once a week, respond to as many post as we can, and offer support and advice to the newbies and not so new family.  If you're still in contact with some of those who have left for greener cyber pastures, reach out to them and let them know that we need there support back home to breathe some life back into BAF.

I'm willing to do my part!  The BAFam was, and still is an invaulable resource for me as I work daily to maintain this new lifestyle.

Happy Holidays Fam........Let's bring in 2011 with a new attitude and a resolve to bring the BAF back to life!!!

The board has at time gone through low points but it has never been this bad, but i'm going to do what I can to help keep it alive.

You know its dead up in here when you have RoRo that deactivated her account and you have posts staying on the main page for days. That would never happen back in the day.

The only thing I dont miss about BAF is how mofo's used to jump all over me for nothing. I am so glad that day is long gone.

This board was more than about one person.  It was a collection of all of us that made it so fun if I recall.

i will try to look and post more othen, i do not use facebook for this, this is a different forum, dont give up yet guys, i wont have much places to lurk!

Thanks for keeping things alive Lee, this week I realized that when I don't stay connected with OH daily I look site of my wl goals and this journey in general.  Hopefully the board will pick up like it was in the old days because I missed the heyday's of BAF I'm sure it was off the hook!

I really didn't know there was a BAF facebook page. What is the name of it? I stopped coming on BAF for several reasons. First I, like so many others who won't admit it, gained back a bunch of weight. I am 7 yrs out and have talked to MANY who are in the same boat I am in. second, I don't like drama and BAf kept up drama. I didn't see many posts from people who were old timers like me who needed help, just DRAMA, so I stopped coming on here. I hope you guys can revive BAF. I will try to come on here more.
