I dont usually post a whole lot, mostly just respond to people and visit a few journals, and lurke about, but i am committed to this WOE. So I decided to join in.

I Pokey, promise to stay on the forum for one full year in good times and in bad. I promise to keep working the low-carb lifestyle, even though I may run into a rough patch here and there. Should something happen in my life and I change my mind about all of this - I promise to come to the TDC and say goodbye (death precluding this) so the many people who have supported me know what became of me. Most of all, I promise to be genuine with myself and others, at all times.

To the Year Ahead
 

Hi Cindi

Having visited the TDC for the first time in a long time I saw your thread and decided I had to join. As you know I have now been a member of the forum for just over a year and so I have seen a lot of people come and go, particularly in the M-Q journals where I regularly hang out.

I like many others have found this forum so supportive and it has made this lifestyle so much easier when you can read that others are or have experienced the same problems. I know it will take me well over a year to lose my remaining weight, so here is my pledge:

I Anne, otherwise known as LittleAnne, promise to stay on the forum for a further year in good times and in bad. I promise to keep working the low-carb lifestyle, even though I may run into a rough patch here and there.

Most of all, I promise to be genuine with myself and others, at all times.

What a great idea for extra motivation!

Even though this is my first night at Triple Digits, I want to take the pledge. When I started Atkins on 01/01/03, I decided to make at least a one year committment to myself. It seemed like such a long way to go, but, hey. 2 months have already gone by! WE CAN DO THIS!

I love this forum, and find it to be just what I may need to continue this WOL. Thanks Cindi......this pledge should help and is a great idea!

I'm here too...
 

Hi all...

I'm not an official card-carrying member of the TDC, but I hope you won't hold that against me. ;) I've noticed a few people lately (on the site) who only have ten or fifteen pounds to lose, and I do not identify with them at all. I fully understand that my 70+ pounds is nothing like 150, but it is still damn unpleasant. *heh*

I think that this is a great pledge! It is very hard to me to imagine anything a year from now; I'm so swamped with current problems. However, I have stopped in here several times a day since joining, so I imagine I could still be around next year. :D

Many thanks to all of you who have offered support and encouragement on my journey thus far! It really does help!

I pledge!
 

I only wish I would have seen this sooner!

Well, guess I'll join you all...........

I've been on one to many diets in my life and have decided this is it, I've got to live long enough to see my son grow up and have children of his own so no more fooling around. So if you all will stick it out, then by golly...so can I

I, Tanya, otherwise known as gotaloseit, promise to stay on the forum for one whole year, live the LC lifestyle through good and bad (and thick and thin :) ) So, lets here it for all of us who have decided that we are fed up with being overweight and we're going to change our lives. Give yourselves a great big pat on the back. Talk to you all later.

OK, sign me up!
 

I agee to the pledge. I wish to join my friends at TDC for at least a year. I have been around for almost 6 months. Another year sounds good. I'm committed to this lifestyle. I like what this WOL has done for me; I love what it can do in the future.

I am not as able to check in as often as I'd like at times, but encourage those of you who can to participate often. Your encouragement might provide the inspiration that keeps some one else going. We all need encouragement and support at times. I will try to read and add my support to fellow TDC members.

Have a great year everyone!

I just started Atkins 11 days ago, but I feel like I've been heading towards this for quite awhile. I'm great at reading posts but not so hot at posting, so I will try to improve there. I'm also one of those who just tends to fade away after a time, so I'm highlighting that part of the pledge for my own benefit.

So, without further ado, I Elizabeth, also known as hatetotcook,
promise to stay on the forum for one full year in good times and in bad. I promise to keep working the low-carb lifestyle, even though I may run into a rough patch here and there. Should something happen in my life and I change my mind about all of this - I promise to come to the TDC and say goodbye (death precluding this) so the many people who have supported me know what became of me. Most of all, I promise to be genuine with myself and others, at all times.

Thanks for the idea Orchidday. Look forward to meeting up with all you!
