I think the yahoo group is a wonderful idea. I've been a member of a similar group for the past two years. There are about 20 members who have supported each other in losing and maintaining our weight losses. We were all originally and still are members of the Usenet newsgroup alt.support.diet but felt the need to have a place where we could discuss some matters in a more private environment.

Hello everyone

There are a million things going on here and I am trying to get caught up. But something just occurred to me and I wanted to get some feedback. I am thinking of creating another Yahoo group specifically for keeping track of various peoples struggles with weight loss. I was thinking that it would be a closed forum to allow for privacy. This would be to enable people to be open and honest about what is going on in their lives. To keep track of the ups and downs, share information and give / get support. Almost like our own Overeaters anonymous group.Let me know if you would be interested by emailing me personally at vaught2@... and if it seems reasonable to do so I will set it up. This of course will not have any fees or nonsense linked to it. No advertisers and no spam. Trolls and flamers will not be tolerated; just honest and open discussion between people who want nothing more than to be a support system for like afflicted folks.Steve
