- The rebel attitude (without WW, is there nothing to rebel against?)
- The hot tub (j/k, but the "hidden" threads were pretty great)

What did I miss?

    How could you leave off Becca and Gary the 300 pound loser? Hate to brink it up, but how about Haiku duels?

    Yep. It goes without saying. Large personalities, large persons ... the whole mix.

    I haven't been on here as much as I would like (work has been crazy busy, life, etc., etc., excuse, excuse), but literally this morning I was thinking about the old WW GOAD page! What a joy to see that I wasn't the only one.

    I always loved the in-depth "spirit of WW versus following the plan" discussions. I enjoyed the times where there was some new "scientific finding" and we could actually pull the original research article and discuss it in some depth. I really enjoyed deciphering the PointsPlus system too!

    ...and although I am trying to be a nicer person in general, I did love the general melee of the "how do I get my boyfriend/husband/significant other to join WW" thread. Heck, I loved all of the threads that devolved into haiku!

    So many memories and so many great items posted above. I have been thinking a lot lately about our GoaD page and where have so many gone to. Good to have lot's of us still around.

    I must have come into GOAD just after the good old days (though I did finds some gems in the archives which I dove into almost immediately after joining). Right about now though, I'm missing the other ~100 people who joined when we moved over here!
