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 my 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!
Do one thing right today...whether it's drinking the liquids, eating the fruits and vegetables, taking the multivitamin, getting the dairies in, having the healthy oil, choosing whole grains...whatever. And, if you're new to this message board, check out Goadies.org.
Remember that at its core, this plan is simple - eat 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 them

Good morning!
The text for this recurring post has been faithfully carried forward for many years. We hardly notice it anymore. Has anyone gone to goadies.org lately? I think you will be surprised. Did anyone ever really buy into WW's healthy oil thing? Does anyone still do it?
The gist of this post is as valid today as it was when written - stay connected, support each other, and persevere. It is good to have a daily reminder of what we are all trying to accomplish, and to know that we are not alone in this struggle. Onward and downward!2 -
Good morning!
Is Goadies dot org still a thing? I couldn't find it. "502 Bad Gateway."1 -

Good morning GoaD.
Back in the day of tracking healthy oils I switched from butter and margarine to olive oil in a Misto sprayer. I still do it.1 -
Good morning.
Great observations from @Philtex today. The basic concepts we learned at WW are still true - move a little more, eat a little less, all things in moderation - are still true.
And while WW changes its points of emphasis from time to time, the lessons stick with us. I’m not a zealot about “GHG”, but that idea still motivates me to use olive oil when I have the chance. And the more recent “healthy eating range” that’s no longer mentioned still helps me set an outer boundary for my choices some days. It’s the “here be dragons” line on the map that I occasionally sail past.2 -
Good morning everyone! Funny about Goadies.org. I, too, get a bad gateway message.
WW has shifted their focus over the years. My sense was that there were folks who might have been very "gung-ho" to cut calories to the bare minimum, and in doing so, got into some poor habits where they were very limited in their intake. The GHGs were likely put-in-place to ensure that no one dieted themselves into a dangerous or super-unhealthy state. Thus, I viewed the GHGs as a safety net.
With all of that said, eat less, move more, is not a bad way to live.2 -

Good evening and good night. I'll have to see what I get for Goadies.org tomorrow.0
