I recently realized...
that when I made my profile private, I may have made it so my OFF friends could not see my profile. Some of you who have been here a while may remember I didn't share my WLS with all the people in my life at the time due to some nastiness at my job. I found out that if my user name was googled, which is part of my e-mail address, anyone could read my posts and profile...not just members. So...being paranoid and going through the stuff I went through, while it may have been too late and the horses were already out of the barnyard, I made my profile private. If anyone here wants to friend me, and it's OK if you don't, feel free. Just didn't want to seem like I was not being friendly to all of you here in this wonderful spot of caring and support we call OFF.

I had no idea that you could google the email address (or part 0f it) and come up with that stuff. I now too made mime profile for friends only. I will accept all as friends but this is not for those out there that I have not told. I have family members who say it is a cheat and lazy person's way to handle being over weight. I didn't need the hassle. But thanks fo the info.
Hey Cheryl,
Sort of addressed this already, so I guess this is a hijack of a sort for those who did not know this and might have issues with it, so it's a good thing you brought it up. . .
FYI, some don't know this. . . but about two years ago I googled my name to see what would come up and guess what. .. my name came up with this link, which for me I don't mind, however, if you have any privacy issues, than I suggest you do your own google search and see what comes up and act accordingly ;)
Have a great day everyone!
Hugs, Laureen

My Mantra is that I do not determine my success by the number hanging in my closet, nor will I let the scale determine that success either. . . It is through trial and error I will continue to grow and succeed. . . Laureen
