I have been looking at the Weight Watchers website, and reading success stories. i find it really inspiring to see how these people changed. I think it would be great to do that here, especially as it seems the longtime successful members sometimes move on. there could be a standard format for telling the story, what worked, slips etc, maintenance.

Then you could read back through their old posts if you wanted to.

It could include AF and moderation. but it should be longer term success as we already hear the day to day stories.

Has this ever been considered?

Nancy,

I think there is a long term abstainers section on the forum homepage...

Do you mean an idea for a separate forum? I think that is a good idea.

yes, like something more structured.

check out the weight watchers site.

there is a bio, history of weight problem, coming to weight watchers, challenges and success strategies, tips for other people

we have a lot of threads about various things, but no way to identify various people and a summary of their whole story.

I think it's a great idea. Definitely to have a structure, as you say.

Have you mentioned it to RJ? She seems to monitor the posts here pretty closely, but she could miss something. Why not PM her with the idea?
