Motivation Forum Volunteer Moderators :)
cmillington - resident birth and breastfeeding nut. She transformed her life, nearly reached her goal weight, and spends her free time jogging or chatting. Best of all, she's a total gossip with a great long distance plan.
mollymouser - MollyMouser (Molly) describes herself as "funny, feisty, fat n' forty" -- but happily reports she is getting healthier and losing weight! She first joined the Calorie-Count website in August 2007 to "count calories," and was amazed by the support, encouragement, and information available here for people wanting to lose weight in a healthy way. Molly is a 42-year-old, happily-married military wife who lives in California with her pilot husband, two rescue dogs and a "house full" of rescued kitty cats. Check out "Molly's Diet Rants" Thread in the Motivation Forum for a quick chuckle and the chance to share your diet-related rants.
nycgirl - Hailing from the Big Apple, NYCGirl has for the first time in her life fulfilled a New Year's Resolution (yay!) and kept up motivation throughout 2007! She loves the Motivation forum for keeping it real and making her laugh & hold her head up high through the good times and bad of her weightloss journey.
smwhipple - Hi there, smwhipple is a California girl and a computer geek. She absolutely loves CC since it's the only method She's ever used that has allowed her to lose weight. She's tried several programs (low carb diet, slim in 6, dance dvds, etc.) but never managed to do any of them long enough to see results (about a week each). She's generally pretty positive and likes dealing with the nice people on CC.
sun123 - Shes a strong believer in different plans working for different people. South Beach is her choice but she supports all plans that are healthy. She started at 465 lbs. and appreciates those with longer weight loss journeys as well as those struggling with hard to lose last pounds. No victories are too small to cheer. If youre struggling with a plateau, she’ll come kick your scale for you. She’s a northeasterner lost in Texas, big on jokes and puzzles.
