ok - here's the new health/weight/diet/exercise/etc... forum.
i'm not married to the name, but i haven't fallen in love with any of the other suggestions so far, either (especially "Let's Get Physical"; sorry to all those who seemed to like this one the best, but every time i think of it, i get this visual of olivia newton-stick-figure in a terry-cloth headband and a pastel bodysuit jumping around on MTV, and the image is even scarier now than it was 20 years ago)...
please continue to suggest names for this forum as we go along; i can always change it later. _________________

Kevin,
Thank you for working so diligently at attempting to please all of the people all of the time... You are the most gracious host I have ever known.
I like the new forums you have created (despite the fact that anything related to weight/diet/exercise is like a four-letter-word to me)...
I appreciate your time and this wonderful wonderful place of support.
Keep up the great job!
~Paula |

Okay here are some more ideas (I'd forgotten about Olivia Newton-John, so yes, Let's NOT get physical) : Um, Freedom from Fat, Here's to Health, A Healthy Start, Fun without Fat (I can't help it--there should be Fun in the title), Chocolate Etc., Health Tips, Fun Health Tips, Sharing Health (woo, that sounds a little weird), Physical Phorum (boo), Body Topics, Physical Affairs, Body Business. Okay, I'll stop now. _________________

I KEPT THINKING OF OLIVIA IN THAT HEADBAND TOO!!!!! I guess I'm stumped on a name for this. Weight, diet and exercise is a biggie for me but not for everyone else. Also, I've been researching different supplements that can aid in undoing some damage, so it isn't just about weight. Overall health means different things for different people. Gee aren't you glad I posted? How much more decisive could I be? Guess it's the blonde hair. (no headband though, I think that was '82) Kerry |

I must have been half asleep last night. I posted this reply on another forum not seeing this one.

WELLNESS!!!!! I love it. It just dawned on me that lately I've been reading a lot of books and articles on wellness. Most western docs just deal with treatment 'cause if they cured us of course, many drug companies and such would go out of business. This country doesn't focus enough on wellness which encompasses many things. That's my vote. Kerry |

Hi Kevin,
You are one wonderful person. Two new forums in a week. What more could we ask. I'm certain that this one is going to be very popular not only for weight reduction, exercising, etc. But for other health issues as well. It's such a relief to be able to talk about concerns to people other than family and friends who are too involved to be objective.
Many, many thanks.
Living free for 3W, 3D, 23H, 10M and loving it. _________________

I agree.
Have you had a chance to look over some of the other name suggestions?? Feel like getting married to any of them?
Any one out there with any new ideas?
