There are a few ways for you to engage, which I've described here with detailed instructions below for each option.
- Post a comment to blog posts.
- Sign up to receive new posts via email.
- Become a follower - so you can post comments to blog entries as an individual rather than as "anonymous."
- Become a contributor - so you can share your story and photos.
- Share your story and photos - without becoming a contributor.
- Silence is golden - you don't have to do any of the above - simply read without engaging.
Post a Comment
 |
| This feature is below each post. |
You may post a comment to blog posts even if you are not a member of this blog; your name and email will not appear with your comment if you are not a member, "Anonymous" will appear instead of your name or email.
Beneath each blog post you will see the option to "Post a Comment" and then there's a text field for your comment. If you leave an anonymous comment, it will not link back to your blogs, Blogger profile, or Google profile in any way.
Write your comment in the text field, select Anonymous from the "Comment as" menu, and then select "Publish."
All comments are moderated by me before they appear on the website.

Share Your Story and Photos
If you would like to share your journey, but you don't want to become a contributor, you may send me your story and photos and I'll post it on your behalf. Or, if you would like to become a part of my
Heroes Series, I would love to add your story!

Silence is Golden
It's perfectly fine to just read my blog and not engage by adding comments or writing your own posts. Lots of you do this and I'm happy that my journey is helping you or perhaps entertaining you. Keep doing what you're doing and I wish you the best on your weight loss journey.
Trouble?
Let me know if you try one of these steps and you are not successful and
I'll troubleshoot for you. To reach me, post a comment anywhere and an
email will come to me with your question. Include your email so I can
respond to you. Your comment won't be posted.
