This marks our first year here at MFP, NM Family.

Marcie, I can't thank you enough for getting us started here and carrying the torch for us.

And, Thank you all for continuing to drop in every morning, or once a week, or whenever you can. I sure look forward to chatting with you here. You are my social outreach. Aside from the occasional lunch with Carol, and hopefully with Billie, I don't get out much. (Doctor appointments don't count). But, I have each of you to rely on for companionship and a laugh or two.

Thank you. I can't imagine my mornings without you.

    And you (and everyone else) don't know how much you brighten my days.

    It would have been nice if more of the NMer's who joined this group had stuck around, but I'm so glad that our core group is still here conversating! I know a lot of them are on Facebook, but it's just not the same thing. I always look forward to coming here to see what's happening with you all. You brighten my day as well!

    I remember feeling such a sense of loss when NM shut down, but being able to keep in touch with you all really helped!

    I agree Marcie, I wish there were more of us here too.
    I'm a browser on Facebook and enjoy seeing a lot of the former NM members and I comment here and there, but I don't plan on posting any personal info over there.
    I feel so free to share with this smaller group, but not on Facebook. In fact, I'm only friends with NMers, my family doesn't know that I log on.

    Hellooo...Hellooo... Just thought I would drop by to to say HI!!! My weight loss journey has come to a screeching halt, my eating habits are down the drain but I still have hope for me. It's hard to believe that its been over 2 years since NM has closed down.
    It's good to know that I can always find you all here. :)

    I'm with you tlspindor, mine is gone, I have gained back almost all of my weight, medical issues being a very large part of it. I've got the garden started finally after not having one since fall of 2014, and I am determined to get back to a positive example for myself.

    Hey all, nice to have more popping in and any day can become our new anniversary to a great start to a healthy us. I'm feeling more and more positive about getting back to my old/new NM days weight. Fluctuating is a big part of life, but I am so thankful that we have our great support system here.
