Many of us feel the need to remain connected by just signing in on a daily basis. We may have a lot to say or very little. We may say smart things, or dumb things. It doesn't matter if we're having a good day, a bad day...or something in between. We'll post our thoughts, our successes, our challenges, our insights (or lack thereof), and our support. We're here for each other. Together, we can do this!

This isn't about perfection...it's about perseverance: to persist in an undertaking in spite of counter influences, opposition, or discouragement.

Onward and Downward. Everyone is welcome! If you're new to this message board, check out goadies.org.

Remember that at its core, weight loss is simple - eat a little less than you used to, eat a little healthier, be a bit more active. The rest is just finding the balance that works for you, and your friends on GoaD are here to share what's worked for you.

    @Tripaway , welcome. Great to have you jumping in.

    I'm curious about your screen name; care to share the back story? (I think I'm longing for a road trip...so don't disappoint me.)

    @minimyzeme - of course there's a back story :smile: When I was a teenager I became obsessed with Shakespeare's work. I've always liked my literature bit on the darker side, so the tragedies were my natural inclination; however, I stumbled across a copy of "A Midsummer Night's Dream" at a garage sale in Georgia with my grandma. Intrigued, I began to read and found it so friggin' hilarious!! And Oberon's closing soliloquy has always resonated with me for some reason, which is where I get my username (it's also my username for pretty much every other online platform I have!). Oberon instructs his fairies to bless the palace, its residents, its guests, and the future children of the three couples just married; he ends by saying "Trip away ; make no stay; Meet me all by break of day." And I just love that :smile:

    Thanks for the back story @Tripaway ! That's a treasure in both the 'lesson' and the origin going back to an outing with your grandma.
