Walking up to strangers to spread the word

[umpa]

I feel like once you learn something huge like how to control your weight you have a responsibility to teach others.Doug uses a picture on a business card.You could carry around a before picture too.Me ?I always have books in the car and I just give them to people(especially kids)that have a genuine interest.It always delights me when someone contacts me and says remember me?You gave me a book?Well  I have lost 50 pounds!

I know it's tough, I was that really large women, pouring myself into a booth at a restaurant and trying to look happy. I would have LOVED to know about something like FTS years ago. I wasted 20 years being overweight, trying not to eat but really just eating carbs thinking I was being healthy and getting bigger. I see these women and think that maybe if I just talked to them I could help them. My life has changed so drastically and it has been so easy that I don't want another person to have to live like that again.  I keep thinking if I catch them alone I could talk to them, maybe just let them know about FTS. I have told all my overweight friends, but as you know it only works if they really want it to. Maybe I should get a shirt or a button. All good ideas...but there has to be a way to let people know without having them feel insulted or like I'm selling something. It is just too hard to keep this secret when I know they could all be feeling as good as I do.

This is why my Fat to skinny T-Shirt idea is so good for those wishing to spread the word like you. Wearing the shirt would do all the talking for you. You say what you need to say without having to say it, no one gets angry, no one embarrassed, all good.

I like the  bumper sticker idea too.I am gonna check it out today. Tim how was the red velvet cake?

[timlovesrita]

I had to shelve the sweets, they were making us gain. We need to wait until we get back to goal and then we will learn/practice more self control. How do you think it is?

[SherriPie]

I love the bumper sticker idea. Or maybe a shirt with the website on it so they can check it out from home. All good ideas.

SHERRI -- 3 more pounds! Wow!!

My 15th Anniversary is next Thursday so I am hardcore working the FTS to try and hit my goal before it. Small portion sizes and no sugar alcohols are really doing the trick.

You Go Girl !! Or yall going somewhere special on your 15th Anniversary ?

[SherriPie]

We are doing dinner and staying at the Loews Portofino Bay here in Orlando. It's amazing and looks like you just stepped into a town in Italy. There are gondolas and boats that take you to Universal. It should be very fun. And the best part I won't be embarrassed of my size the whole time we're there, I won't have to worry about fitting in the seats at the restaurant, or if there are arm rests on the chairs or if people are staring at me. It's like a whole new world.

I am sure it is sister !!!!

OK gang, I hear you loud and clear Here's a bumper sticker design, let me know if you like it and I'll move in that direction 

[timlovesrita]

Hard for them to "ask how" when you're driving in different cars at 55mph I'd lose that "ask me how" and add a ".com" on there so at least the bumper sticker can point them to the website. I like the idea of "ask me how" for a T-Shirt tho IMHO
