Yesterday when I was on the RNY board, it was suggested to someone to come here.  Up until then, I didn't know  this board existed.  I am sooo happy that I have found this!  As others have said, it is the most supportive, encouraging place I have found.  I was beginning to feel I needed to lay off OH due to frequent negative comments to and judgments by other people aired in the forums.  So, I am really looking forward to getting to know you all and making some new friends!

Welcome! I'm so glad you found us. I felt the same way before I found the lightweights. Too much negativity on some of the other boards.

Welcome Paula!! Glad you found us.

This is my primary board - I do frequent the singles board too (since I'm single..) and lur****asionally on the RNY , Michigan and PS boards and make comments on occasions.  But I don't get mixed up in the negativity that can go on there.  I definitely don't do the Main Board!

This is the friendlist board on OH (I think).  And what else is great - is it is a very active one.  When you feel comfy posting pretty much anything  - it can generate lots of good discussions.

Um, Jody - is that precisely accurate?  I mean, would BF like it if you described yourself as "single"?
