    Why not keep this one for general posts and add one for the weigh-in? Just a thought..

    I actually took some time to think this through. Again, I have never been on any social media and this is new to me. My personal opinion is that it would be better for members to create their own threads. For instance, there are several topics in this current thread.

    I could have easily created a post that said, "How To Access All Of The Groups Discussions."

    There could have been another page for the Chocolate/PB2 discussion and so on.

    A "Results" page will lead to other conversations and will be more focused on the topic. Of course, it will still remain a page for people to congratulate, encourage and offer suggestions to each other. I also wouldn't want to discourage others from creating their own topics or to feel like they need to post on certain pages and think that will lead to a far better experience for all.

    I'm not sure how often you blogged on NS but I was pretty much posting just on Sunday to report my results. I am sure there are quite a few of the 130+ members of this group that will likely do the same and a results page for the day of the week they report should be an asset to them, which is why I am in favor of doing a results page each day. And if someone wants to start a discussion to post their results, that works too.

    I'd like to try it with only the results driven page for a week or two to see how it works out. If we need to add another go-to page we can always do so.

    I can come up with of a bunch of specific pages that we could create if we wanted to (introductions, exercise, recipes, helpful hints, etc.) but think it should remain as member driven as possible. In my opinion, it is much better when Wen creates a Helpful Hints page or Morgan creates his Migration Tips page. Plus the likelihood of this important information getting lost within other discussions is far less.

    I'd be curious to hear what others think.






    I like the idea of having certain core topics listed. It will make it easier to find what you are looking for if looking for assistance. But I am good with whatever. Just happy to have a place where I can check in on my NS friends and be checked up on to keep me accountable.

    I think you are onto something and you just gave me an idea. We can quote somebody within a discussion so if we copy the text from the quote, can we post it into another discussion? For instance, copy Morgan's Migration tips and enter them on a Helpful Hints and Tips page. Those core topics can be listed in all CAPS to make them stand out. Let me give it a shot.

    That is a really good idea.

    Isn't it the best?!!! Are you doing it in the blender with ice?

    Using a blender with ice, and some milk that was to be for breakfast, but saved it just for the mid morning. Definitely going to use up what chocolate mix I have left with this drink[/quote]

    What's the recipe? I missed it.

    I think it was sznsido and tobefitjen came up with this in an earlier post. It a NS chocolate shake mixed with PB2 peanut butter powder in a blender with ice. I used frozen milk cubes as I wanted some extra protein and it turned into a wonderful Chocolate/Peanut-butter frosty. I have also used the NS chocolate shake mix with coffee blended ice for coffee/mocha.

    Now I need something for the vanilla

    Depending on where you are and what stores you have, HyVee has it my area, as does GNC. Worst case scenario, Amazon has it too :)
