Hey girls,

Thank you all for taking the time to complete the survey. I was very happy to read that this program is really been beneficial to you all. That is GREAT news. Whether it is to motivate you on a daily or weekly basis or whether it is to find a new friend, I am happy to hear that things are going well.

I was also happy to hear that you all are enjoying the chat sessions we have. Weekly chats are nice to get the group together and share ideas while others reading the thread also get to too. I think what we'll do though, is have one monthly scheduled chat for September. We will discuss our topic of the week hopefully in the chat room (once it's fully functional). If you find you need more, we'll go back to once a week. The key to having this stick is PARTICIPATION!! So please vote in our chat polls to determind date and times...and also refer to the calendar on the message board for when our chat sessions will be. I usually fill it in once the poll has been closed! So if you missed the poll, check the calendar.

If you have any topics you might want to discuss, PM them to me or Shell (2bearsmom). We want these chat sessions to be about subject matter YOU care about or will be educated on. So even if you think it's "silly" PM us your ideas. Often times we can incorportate them into other chats ~ We do go off tangent from time to time!!!

Thanks so much ladies for doing this.....and keep up the good work

Look for a contest coming up this fall!

bumping up!

bumping up!

sounds good (j/k- I liked the weekly ones)! So are we going to skip an August chat session then? Understandable with it being the end of summer and everyone has something going on!

Yes, end of the summer is crazy with kids going back to school, or getting ready to go back and Christy will be on a month long vacation.
We may still do something weekly...you all were pretty split down the middle for weekly vs monthly (way to make it a harder decision!)....I like the idea of something weekly for the accountability factor.

I think the break will be good too to regroup, the surveys were great b/c we got a better idea of what is working and what isn't working. As mentioned above PLEASE PM us with your ideas for chats...we want to talk about what YOU want to talk about...even if it's sill for a day (Hmm maybe we'll do the Dr Oz "sex only burns so many calories" chat )...we should get a good amount showing up for that one!
