Oh my goodness! I was only away about ten days. Look how many new friends I have, I think its so great to see all of these new faces
<b>theycallmewinnie</b> It sounds like you are determined, motivated and already successful already. What a wonderful addition to my support group you are going to be. You will help keep me motivated.
I control my carbohydrate intake too and it is an easy thing for me and it sounds like its working well for you, too. We have lots of WISHers who control their carbohydrate intake so you have a ready source for information if you need it. All you have to do is ask. Im glad you decided to join us.
<b>Rain</b> It sounds like the lipotrim plan is giving the results you want. Im so glad. Be sure and post on the check in thread occassionally so that I can keep up with your success
<b>dandave</b> Im just tickled to see you here on WISH. I think youre going to like it here. Everyone is so nice and just friendly and caring. Youll see
I follow the Atkins nutritional plan, too and so do many other WISHers. If you need recipes or have questions just ask and you will get plenty of advice, quickly.
I think it is wonderful that you decided to take control while you had 30 pounds to lose. I waited a lot longer so its going to take me a long time to get this weight off. With the determined attitude you are exhibiting, I have no doubt you will reach your goal with ease.
Thanks for becoming part of my support group. I need lots and lots of support
You are going to see some great results with reducing your lipids following the Atkins plan. My husband certainly did.

<b>carole88</b> YAY!! Another WW. We have losts of WW WISHers. If you have any questions about the program all you have to do is ask. They will be there to give you answers and advice everyday.
You have a plan and a reasonable goal so I think you are going to do just great. Ill bet you will reach your goal easily by October. Im just tickled that you will be part of my support group now. Welcome to the family.
<b>madscrapper</b> Welcome to the DIS sweetie and a very special welcome to WISH. Im very glad you have decided to join us. There are many other Wws here on WISH. You will have as much help and information about the program you could ever need.
I think youre going to like it herewe have fun and we get healthy and we do it together. Youll see, youre going to do just <b>great</b>!
<b>magicmouse2</b> How nice you decided to join us here on WISH. Did you go ahead and start Atkins Induction? How is that working out for you?
There are many WISHers following the Atkins plan and everyone of them is helpful and caring so if you have any questions about the plan, just ask and you will receive a prompt reply.
How romantic and exciting to have a vow renewel. You must post a photo for us after the ceremony. I want to see how gorgeous you look in that size 10 wedding dress. I know you will reach your goal by September. You are too motivated and determined for any other possibility.
You are going to be a wonderful example for me. Im glad you are part of my support group.
<b>JoNo</b> Hey! Another guy type WISHer, Im so glad to see you here.
How determined you are to grab control of your eating habits while you still have a small amount of weight to lose. Good for you. You are a great new addition to my support group, you are going to help keep me motivated, I just know it.
Are you going to follow a formal eating plan?
<b>DrDolphin</b> A new DISer and a new WISHer. My favorite kind of person
Welcome to the DIS, DrDolphin, Im glad you found us and Im very happy that you will be here with us on WISH now.
I admire you so much for running in marathons. I dont know that I could do that, bad knees you know
We have several WISHers planning on participating in the 2005 marathon. They find planning on that to be very motivating.
Will you be following a formal eating plan?
Im glad you will be part of my support group now. You are going to do great, Im sure of it, we are all going to help you
<b>brendaroo</b> Im so sorry to hear of your loss.
Its great to see you here on WISH. Welcome to the DIS and a special welcome to WISH. You are going to make a wonderful addition to my support group. I can tell, already, because you are so enthusiastic and motivated
I think if you follow the Atkins plan carefully you should have no trouble reaching your goal by June 23rd. Youre going to do great, just wait and see. WISH has been a great help to me and it will help you too. All we ask in return is for <i>you</i> to help <i>us</i>.
<b>candylover</b> Ill change your eating plan to eating sensibly. Atkins is not the eating plan for everyone so its a good thing that you figured that out and chose another plan. Those steroids wreak havoc with your system dont they? They cause so much weight gain. I know you will be very pleased when you dont need to take them any more.
Keep us posted on your progress, sweetie.
<b>LAWalz23</b> Im glad you decided to join us here on WISH. We have a wonderful support group here and you are an excellent addition to the group.
I know that 50 pounds sounds like a lot of weight to lose but if you break it up into smaller minigoals it will help you not become frustrated and give up. I had at least 100 pounds to lose when I began in January and now I have at least 60 more pounds to lose but I just focus on getting smaller and try not to worry about the number on the scale. That is helpful for me. Just look ahead to losing 10 pounds when you begin, thats not nearly as overwhelming sounding as 50 pounds, dont you think?
There are a lot of WW WISHers here and they know lots of great stuff about WW. If you have any questions about the program just ask and you will receive plenty of answers and advice.
I think the best part of WISH is the support group which is composed of nice and caring people who follow all kinds of eating plans. We help each other here on WISH, to reach our goals, and now you are here to help and be helped too. I think thats great
<b>Mommy Poppins</b> WOO HOO! A trip in December? I have a trip in December too, when will you be there? Staying at Shades of Green?
Im really glad you decided to join us, Mommy Poppins, we have a lot of fun and we are all just getting so healthy. Youre going to enjoy visiting WISH and I hope you will visit often. Your goal sounds very reasonable to me. You want to lose 40 pounds by December. Sounds very reasonable to meDecember is six months away. All you need to do is lose close to 7 pounds a month and you will reach your goal easily.
Will you be following a formal eating plan?
<b>giggles221</b> I have a little doll with your name...of course....there is no 221 attached but her name is giggles
Welcome to the DIS and a very special welcome to WISH, Im really glad you decided to join us. My husband put on a few pounds during law school, too. Of course, that was a <i>long</i> time ago, he graduated in 1974
Look what a wonderful attitude you have about this project. Approaching your goal one pound at a time is very wise and helps keep you from becoming frustrated. Ill bet you have no problem at all losing that 20 pounds by August. Youre going to do great, just wait and see, everyone of your fellow WISHers are going to help you. I hope you can visit often.
Im putting you down as eating sensibly
<b>Mrs.Milo</b> Hi there! Its great to see you here on WISH. How is our Milo doing these days? Hope he is staying in out of the heat. We have a nother mother/daughter combination on WISH, I think that is just wonderful.
I follow the Atkins plan and so do many other WISHers. If you have any questions about the program all you have to do is ask, you will get many quick replies.
I had over 100 pounds to lose when I began, good for you grabbing control while you had less than 50 pounds to lose. That shows that you are determined and motivated and <i>that</i> means you are going to help <i>me</i> stay motivated and determined too. Isnt that great? Im so glad that you are going to be part of my support group now
It just makes me smile to see so many new WISHers. Our support group is growing by leaps and bounds and the more the merrier, I say. Im really glad you will all be with us now.
You may add the WISH challenge clipart to your signature if you wish. The WISH clipart is exempt from the DIS clipart guidelines so you dont have to worry about that.
What we do is begin with a zero loss when we take the challenge, even if we have lost weight before we signed up. Then every time you lose five pounds you get to trade up to a new clipart. Its fun and kind of motivating.
There is an excellent post written by our own Wovenwonder telling you how to add the clipart right <b>
HERE</b>. If you need help with adding this clipart to your signature just pm one of the moderators here or ask for help on the technical support board.
<i>I sure hope everyone is ready to succeed because thats what we do here on WISH, we <b>succeed</b>. Its the greatest feeling in the world too. Theres nothing like success to make you feel proud and to make you smile. We do lots of smiling here on WISH and youre going to smile a lot, too. After all....you <i>are</i> WISHers now
