You didn't get kicked off the board sweetie...and I'm certain no one was referring to you when they spoke about the 'kids' on the board. They are referring to the fact that now most schools have let out for the summer, the cruel kids who have nothing better to do than try and insult a bunch of people trying to lose weight.

I hope you don't leave the FWL board... I know you'll be missed. As much as it hurts, we have to try and ignore those cruel people. If we leave, then its almost like letting them win. I can understand your wanting to take a few days off, and post here to give things a chance to calm down.

Please take care, Katie, and reconsider your decision... I know I'm 23 and there is an age difference, but if you ever need to talk to someone, feel free to e-mail me at any time.
Take care sweetie...

Hi sweetie,,,

YOur welcome to post here anytime.... :) we welcome you with open arms ... and I am always around here to delete negitive posts... though I have never had to...

I think the trolls have run amock on FWL.... I went there today and couldn't find a single post worth relpying to which hasn't happened in a long time... and I am just NOT in the mood to try to post positive weight loss messages there tonight.... I will try again in the morning.....

If you need a break from FWL this is an excellent vacation spot...... ans if you felel you have to leave FWL forever This forum is also a WONDERFUL place to live ;) .... We are slow going here at times but welcome you with OPEN ARMS!!!

Ivy

I have never been to the other forum FWL but I must say I want over to do some reading and was sickened by the childish behaviour exhibited by many posters. I wont go on because I don't want to add salt to your wounds hon but just let it go.. I really suggest you post here and leave that board as they seem to be out for blood and who needs such negativity in their lives.. we should be living life happily :)) so post here a while hon.. we will all give you the support you need :))

I'm like Carol, had never visited that other board before, but I checked it out yesterday and have to agree. That is one board I could live without. Like most of you I have enough stress in my life:) There seem to be some people there with good intentions, but unfortunately the negative people seem to be taking over. Feel free to post with us anytime and maybe in time that board will turn around. We are glad to have you though!

Hey kiddo, I think you may have found a new home. I am a substitute teacher, and believe me kids can be cruel. You do not need that kind of added stress. Loosing weight as a youngster is hard enough, I know I've been there. Just keep working at it and I think you will get all the support you need from the great people on this forum. Chin up. You'll do great!
