OT: Sad day

Darlene....your opinion is VERY important to me!!

I post on both....not all a repeat if I can help it.

Love ya my friend....hugs....connie d

Hi Darlene.  I understand what you are saying too.  But the other board is restricted to people *****quest to be members, so others cannot see the posts, so don't have the ability to copy to other sites like facebook.  I know that still doesn't make it completely secure, because a member of the group could do the same.  I guess it gives us a little sense of security, especially if we post something a bit more personal - and pictures. 

I still check both forums daily and if I have a general thread to start, I'll post it on both forums.  I may change my mind about the privacy as I begin to lose, but right now I'm still sensitive about it. 

It's really sad that some people would copy and post our pictures and comments on another site.  If done, I'm guessing it's being done so as  a mean spirited action.  But it happens.  There are mean spirited people all over.

 I stayed put here.....  If someone wants to know something bad enough they will find a way to get that info.

 I was surprised myself to see how much personal info of mine is available through google.  I know "stuff" about people who would be shocked if they knew I know..  it's all public info....  nothing is private anymore or sacred... sigh...  

Stuff hidden in closets are no longer hidden.

I'll just still be hanging out here.

I guess I never really understood the reason but I have tried to get to the "New" place and will post both here and there but haven't figured out how to yet. lol...That's my only problem.  Hey, I try to get along with everyone and go with the flow, so to speak as  Obesity Help is the only WLS support I have and I'd sure miss it if I couldn't have access to either one.  I may not post too often but I try to keep up with everyone else's posts.  I just feel I don't really have much interesting to say and nobody would notice if I'm not here.  I've had many WOW moments but know everyone else has  too so don't even bother to say anything anymore.  I've found that if I tell any of my Non WLS friends/relatives of any WOW moments they kind of take it like I'm bragging so I keep my mouth shut.  (and YES, they all could lose quite a bit of weight)
 
Just getting it off my chest.

Thanks for this post - I also post on a couple of forums so have no desire to go to yet another one so will continue here.

Thanks for all of your support and still hope to see most of you here.

Shoot....I didn't even know there WAS a new forum and don't even know where it is!! I've been so busy the last few weeks, my computer time has been slashed so I probably wouldn't have visited anyway.

I care about your Hoot!!!
