Warning: PISSY mood post!

Do you ever ask yourself .... WHY DO I keep coming back to OH? WHY DO I keep trying to pay it forward? WHY DO I even bother reaching out to share my experiences? WHY WHY WHY?!?!?!?! Its been a long time since a MESSAGE board could AGGRA the hell out of me like today did. Why do people think that just because we're AT GOAL we are no longer of value, we no longer understand, we no longer have a f'n clue?!?!?! Yep - Im pissed ......get over it, right? The explanation is here: http://www.obesityhelp.com/morbidobesity/member-interests/bmi_over_50/recent-activity.html Rumor has it when you're tossing out all kinds of ENERGY and it's NEGATIVE (like I am now) thats the BEST time to get up an exercise. Ive already done 45 minutes on the treadmill - I think Im ready for MORE! Lei

Sweetie, you will ALWAYS be of great value and worth to me. As for these other bone-heads......well just tell them where to kiss. Why they have to always be a sad sack is being any human reasoning. Keep up the good work and inspiration. FOR YOU ARE PRICELESS TO SO MANY OF US. Love you and especially love you for putting up with me!!! Bea

What an A**....they obviously don't know you and know the fact that you support everyone in the very best way possible......Thats like getting flamed for what have you eaten today.....I could see it now....."you know I am on a liquid diet why would you do this when I can't eat" (which that did NOT happen....but I could see it happen......lol) I had a BMI over 50 and I could move......and I have also worked in rehad nursing home place and worked with alot of folks who were MO and wheelchair confined.......and ya know what they can move too.....arm reaches, leg lifts, anything moving helps......I find the how are you going to move posts inspiring if nothing else......makes us all think of something extra we can do for ourselves......I think you are grand and I know for certain you would never intentionally hurt anyone......okay maybe a few people But don't let one person ruin your day when there are thousands that know your true intent and love ya By the way I am so jealous you and Kim get to go to water aerobics.....I would love to that with ya.....Have a great day....Take Care Jesi

What Kiki said especially the hand gesture part Kristy

Guess I'm confused...I read your post and you had one reply about them heading to the kitchen....did you get private emails? Did someone blast you?

Lei I value you! I appreciate your honesty and "spade a spade" attitude! If someone doesn't want to understand where your heart was for the post POOP ON THEM! They'll never know if they don't even try and walk the walk! You keep posting and don't you pay no never mind to the boneheads on the board - for the most part we're all good at heart!

Lei, Don't feel alone, I think there must be something in the air. I was blasted myself yesterday twice, once on the Cali board and once from a Vendor on the Main Board. I am about to give up. It just plain stinks..... I am empathize with you. Darlene

Darlen, DON'T give up or give in!!! You hang in there! Keep doing what you are doing because YOU matter to a lot of people here at OH! Becky

Thanks Becky, I think that's the first time anyone said I mattered...... Kind of took my breath away.... Darlene

A'ight lady ... listen up. You keep coming here trying to pay it forward and reaching out for people who don't necessarily tell you you're helping them. But if what you say reaches just one person, don't you think it's worth it? I tend not to give a lot of advice. I've been accused of being one of the overly chipper cheerleader types. So be it. That's what works for me. And you do what works for you. And believe you me Leilani ... you've done me a world of good. So, thank you. Hugz, Cathy
