I'm coming back to MFP after going to WW (again!). I realize that I need to see my macros and I need to be held accountable for EVERYTHING I eat. If I "go over" for the day I need to see that. I need to be reset everyday, not every week!
That being said - I do like the boards on WW. Some people have started Daily Threads where everyone checks in with one another and tells about their day/life/eating habits...whatever. I was wondering who might be interested in that type of board, or if there was a board like that already?
- Thanks!

    I think that is great idea.

    Not trying to be negative but isn't that the purpose of having friends here? Maybe I am not understanding what you are trying to do.

    I'd suggest joining a group of people with similar interests for you. There currently isn't a search function in the group section, but there is a work around until they get the search up and running:

    I know that I, too, love the country. So please add me as a friend if you want!

    Ya that is the point...but I was talking more about making a thread for the same group of "friends" to go to everyday to talk to one another and support one another.

    You could add it under chit chat/fun and games... would interest me more than the games going on...

    Isn't that the point of having friends? I am not understanding the difference other than one is private and one is public. Still not trying to be negative. Just trying to understand what you are wanting.

    When I was on WW the message boards had different "groups." They had different titles, and they had the same group of "friends" that reported into each group daily (or at least Monday - Friday). Anyone could chime in, but it was usually the same bunch of people. They were checking in with one another and getting support from one another and just having a place to go to to talk with their "friends."

    I was thinking of two ways of doing this...we could start a daily thread in the "chit-chat" boards...or we can start a daily thread in our news feeds and all reply to that. Let me know what everyone thinks!
