Cleaning out the buddies.

It's kind of sad. I'm going through my buddies and deleting anyone who is over 6 months old without a post or weigh in. I'm keeping a few who I had good relationships and chats with in the past in hopes they will come back.

Sadly most never hit their goals, though whether they met their goals or not had nothing to do with whether I have kept them.

One was rather shocking. Kingkeld. He hasn't been on here since mid 2014. He used to be a fixture.

People, please stay here regardless or success or failure as there is support and there is always the potential of meeting your goals if you keep your intention in recent memory.

The rest of you? Thanks for hanging around and being a support to me.

Do you know what happened to Bulletproof? I can't remember if there was more to her name but had some good info and experiences and haven't heard from her in a long time...

I was very moved by this post. I've had the same experience. I was absent for a while, and many of the buddies I interacted with regularly have disappeared -- and it's clear they never met their goals. I'm glad there are still a few of the old gang left, and I've made a few new friends, too. But I plan to stay on FS until I reach goal and beyond. I don't imagine I'll ever be able to stop being vigilant about what goes into my mouth and, potentially, on to my hips.

I also deleted "buddies" and Facebook like-a-holics. Actually, I wish I had not opened a Facebook account, because FS is far more interesting and helpful.

I agree FB isn't what it used to be, if I didn't manage 2 camping groups

I miss King, too. I think he just moved on to other support networks.

I don't believe I knew Bulletproof. Good to hear King is doing okay.

I'm here Northernmusician! I'm glad you and Draglist didn't delete me :)

I clean house about every 3 months, not just of those who are absent, but also of those who are clearly not here to lose weight/gain health (I'm not using FS as a Facebook substitute). I track my buddies' weigh ins, food choices, and comments pretty closely, and don't accept invitations of members who are half-assing it in the first place. Like seeks Like, and all that.

KJ. I only delete if there's no recording of weight or no journal posts. Glad to see you pop up.

Uh-oh, I almost missed the cutoff, OMG! But I would have found you again. :P

I thank GOD my buddies have stuck with me as I work on a computer 40 hours a week and coming home and getting on another computer get to be hard during the year. My Buddies understand that and stick with me. I went through 5 months last year with health issues that prevented me from working out and I felt terrible. I was not in a positive attitude and did not want to come on and fain support, when my heart was not it. I am not criticizing or judging you for your choice, because its your choice and your right. I just want to say thanks for all the support FAT SECRET Family thick or thin. I love you all.
