It is very difficult for me to say this, but Tales from the Scales will be closing it's bloggy doors on April 17th, 2008.
After all I have been through over the past six weeks, I can no longer put forth the effort, nor have the motivation, to continue this blog and make it truly useful to it's readers.
A special thank you to all of the amazing, inspiring, special women who have contributed to this site - you have made it the success that it is.
Over the next week I will browsing other weight loss blogs for challenges that may benefit you. I will be posting a list this Friday. It is my hope that you find one that leads you to the weight loss success you have been working so hard to achieve or maintain. The weigh-ins, along with regular posting will continue for the next two weeks. Thank you so much for your understanding.
I am so sorry to hear that -- I hadn't been active here in a while but still enjoyed reading.
Then I read your link -- and am so very, very sorry for your loss.

Just a question to the group at large would there be interest in starting our own weight lose challenge blog?

You do what's right for you! That's all there is to it!
We'll manage...and if, one day, the inspiration strikes you, then come back. It's not a one way door.
Best wishes!

I'm so incredibly sorry for your loss. I browsed through your blog this afternoon when I came to weigh-in and realized that you had more important things going on right now. Looks like your March of Dimes is incredible - congrats! I had a loss once; I remember. Take care of yourself. {{Hugs}} to you and your family.

Just saying (very belatedly) that I miss this site! Hope all is well with you.
If anyone knows how Jan from the old 'Eatingrite' blog is getting on, I would love to know. I miss her blog a lot!
