    Welcome back @reshii_devi i_devi
    @quiltingjaine - I have wondered about the history of JGMTD. As we are now on round 279, that is 2790 days, or 7.64 YEARS. How did you happen to take it over, and when?

    It amazes me to think of 2790 days but time really does fly.

    It is my understanding that the thread was begun by @hillcrestbaby but I have never seen a post by her(?) My first post was in June, 2017 when I said I would become a regular after 3 short trips with friends. So for me round 7 was the beginning. At the time, I believe @GrandmaJackie was starting all of the rounds. When she needed a break around round 140-ish I think a few of us helped - @TerriRichardson112 , @musicsax and I are the ones I remember. My first “regular” post was 147, I think, and I’ve been doing it ever since with assistance from @musicsax when I’ve been without internet or when MFP changed things and my old brain couldn’t figure it out!

    I will be honest and say that recently I have considered passing the torch but I think if I do that I might just drift away and I really don’t want to lose this lifeline. 😘❤️😘❤️

    That’s quite true. I also started in Round 7 in June 2017. I have been popping in occasionally to see how you are all doing, but my weight changes so little these days that I have got out of the habit of logging it daily.

    I’m still here, though, and it’s good to see so many familiar usernames. So many left when MFP removed the newsfeed.

    @TerriRichardson112 It's so great to "see" you again! I have wondered about you and @GrandmaJackie both. Hope you are well and it's good to know that you peak in periodically. You are missed!

    @_jeffryeyD_ - you are a wise man, both to journal and then to burn them.

    @reshii_devi - I think restarting Thanksgiving week is brilliant!

    @deepwoodsdonna - as my 2yo DGS says, "What a mess!"

    @TerriRichardson112 -

    Wow. THIS is nirvana for those in the battle against abundance.
