I get by with a little help from my friends
Name:A support group
About:SupportCircle

This is a small support circle for people trying to lose weight.


What this community is about: SupportCircle is almost like a "secret" community that only a handful of people know about where members share successes and failures, highs and lows, and maybe even some tips and recipes.

Why this community was created: I created SupportCircle so that I could start a support group for a small number of people. It's hard to really get to know someone in a large community. I wanted to really get to know other people so I could give better advice and support. I wanted to be on a first name basis with my support buddies. I thought this was the best way to do it.

What you'll see in an average post: Members can post just about anything they want, as long as it's about their weight loss. It is encouraged to add a little something that may be going on in your life, so we can get to know you outside of your diet, too. An average post will contain how you did that day on your diet, anything you learned, photos of your progress, etc. If you failed you can complain all you want or if you succeeded you can brag over and over.

Basic Rules:
+ Post as often as you'd like, but it would be best to try to put everything in one entry per day.
+ Do your best to comment on every entry, even if you have hardly anything to say.
+ If you're going to post all the food you ate that day, put it behind a LJ cut, please.
+ You can invite your close friends to the community, we just have to watch out that the community doesn't get too big.
+ You are welcome to copy+paste entries from your personal journal so you don't have to write a million different entries a day.
+ Just try to use best judgement on what should stay in your personal journal, and what should go here. If you feel like your entry is really long, feel free to put it behind an LJ cut as a warning. ;)
+ Have fun! Sure, dieting is hard, but we're all in this together so let's make it worthwhile!

Once you join, post an entry to introduce yourself.
