Default 20,000 posts !!!


Hi all,

No, we are not quite there yet - but, for the last half-hour, I've kept a weather-eye on the "number of posts" - and it's stuck on 19,994.

So, I thought I'd help it along. The person that posts the 20,000th post wins a dinner with Koh (but YOU have to pay your way to Sydney - I'll buy the dinner). Can I be fairer than that?


Seriously though, this figure (20,000 posts) is a HUGE milestone for Newyou - and I applaud Asy and LessFatty for kicking off this dynamic forum.

Cheers to all,

Koh

Of course....

Now is probably a good time to remind people of the New You Forum Stats Page. Some interesting stats one of which being that Koh and I have too much time during the day....

Personally I am amazed to see how quickly this site has grown in the year I have been here. Full credit to asy and LF for starting this site up way back when.

Hi SassyK,

Girl, you are the WINNER !!! The 20,000th post on Newyou. First prize is a dinner with Kohinoor (as long as you are in Sydney, or can pay your way there). Second prize is two dinners with Koh

And, yeah, I'll buy the dinner - you just gotta get here....

Hi SassyK,

Well, I'm good for it - just let me know when you're in town. It'll be nice to meet up with another Cohenite (even though I'm just a mascot, and not "true blue"). And I know a REALLY great place to eat - but shucks, I don't know if it is Cohen approved - I guess I have some homework to do.

Re the 20,000th post, did you notice that, since this post, things are moving again (maybe people DIDN'T want to win a dinner )

Hi Asy,

Seems you logged on about 10 minutes too late - coulda been you'n'me (but I'm sure that can be arranged anyway )

But hey, 20,000 posts - awesome eh? Have you done a good thing here - or what? The spirit of this place just keeps calling me (and Baloo too, it seems ) and about 500 others too,

Koh

Hummmmm Well I couldn't have gotten over there yet even if I had of won. I'd be better off buying the dinner myself for what it would cost for airfare

G'day Pudge,

From what I've read, Koh's company at dinner must be worth at least an air fare, and think of the fun you could have for a couple of weeks visiting others from the forum around the country. It'd be a great reward when you get to goal weight , and not much food temptation, eating with Cohenites all the time.

Back again to do it all over again, starting from exactly the same weight as last time.
My health is not good and my doctor is predicting all sorts of nasty things if I don't lose weight.
What else do I do? I help people make money and I help people save money. Please take a look at http://www.acnlinks.clancie.com.au/
Back again for the support. Still think the diet and the forum are the best ever, but too old to do it again. Now losing again slowly on maintenance diet. Ticker shows next intermediate goal only (5 kilos).
