Hi Koh,
I have just caught up on your last post. Yes I now have that Cohens Diploma with Honours and am working towards my Cohens MBA now That comes after maintaining a while - a bit like SMS who is an amazing man and his maintenance journey has inspired me. When you get time post us an update on what is happening in your world. Saph |

Re: Koh's blog - "Not the Nine O'Clock News"
Hi all,
Yeah, I do know I have a "Diary" which I should update more often .... Thought I'd pop in to let you all know that I fly to NZ today for a few days to celebrate Mum's birthday. Looking forward to that. Life remains hectic right now, and, especially for the next four days, I won't be "around". Keep on doing good for YOU, and I'll see you again from Tuesday next week. Koh

Re: Koh's blog - "Not the Nine O'Clock News"
Hmmm - to quote the Bard, "The best laid plans o' mice and men gang aft aglay" (hope the spelling is close....) and so it occurred for me on Thursday.
Mrs. Koh had a relapse of a health problem that has laid her low over the past few months, and we had to make a rush to the Dr. This threw out all plans of boarding a flight too NZ. Sorry, Mum - even though I know you understand, I still would have liked to be with you on your birthday. But then, that is what Life is all about - making decisions when one is faced with awkward situations. And to NewYou, I'm back - days sooner than expected.... In fact, I never really left after all..... Koh

So sorry about mrs koh and I'm sure your mum is understanding but disappointed at the same time. Hope all is well soon enough for your family koh, but on a purely and utterly selfish note, we're all very glad that you're not missing until Tuesday!!!!
The silver lining??? Maybe for us!! |

Where HAS that bloody dog been ????
To all my Newyou friends,
"I'm so sorry....." I've been caught up with things that have kept me from even wanting to log in here. And I KNOW it has likely caused angst in some quarters. My thanks to the Mods who I hope have been able to field a bunch of questions while I was away tending to "life issues". It's a bugger getting old(er) !!!! Attempts to seek employment have been failing for many months, and our situation had become quite dire. It meant I had to use my time in beating wolves away from our door, rather than spend time on here helping. Fortunately, just a few days back, I got a phone call that could well turn things around and have me providing some much-needed $$ once more. (I start next week - helping out at a local sporting club). Keep your fingers crossed that it all goes well for me (I need it to, seriously!!) Manwhile, I'll endeavour to do a bit of "catchup" today (I have an hour or so spare) but I can't say "I'm back!" just yet. Time is tightening up, and with the new job, it will tighten up a little more (it's an evening job). For now though, I am feeling the occasional smile appearing on my face once more (it's been a while....). I hope I find all of you in good spirits, Regards, Koh

Re: Koh's blog - "Not the Nine O'Clock News"
Hi Koh,
Lovely to see your post on here, all the very best for your future, I hope it all works out for you. Koh you so deserve the very best, you are such a giving person, it is time for your reward. Totally understand the place you have been in, like you say it is harder getting older and trying to find work. Both my husband and I are facing surgery this year and next, which is always a worry when it comes to time off work for recovery. We are also down sizing our family home at the end of this year, to free up capital, time and energy. Keep those smiles appearing on your face Koh. Take care lovely giving man. Hugs xxx

Re: Koh's blog - "Not the Nine O'Clock News"
Hi all,
Some of you would have seen me popping up here and there recently. There is one major reason why I am back on today - and that is Kristine. For those that don't know the history, it was Kristine who "showed the Cohens way" to Asy and a number of others on the Somersoft forum. Several decided to take it up, and there was a little "gang" of folks who cheered each other on. Asy saw the need for a specific Cohens support forum, and, thanks to her hard work, "NewYou" was born. So the catalyst that led to the existence of NewYou was Kristine - and Asy took it from there. Now, just a few weeks ago, Kristine emailed me to update me re her decision to buy a new Plan and get going again. What could I do but log in again to offer what I could in supporting Kristine as she (once again) trims right down to where she needs to be. She had maintained for some years, but, as happens, stresses of daily life can take ones focus away from such mundane things as "eating well". We skip meals, buy fast food, etc and before you know it, things get out of whack again. So for now, I'm back - the troubles of the last few years have eased somewhat, but more work needs to be done in that arena, so I still don't have a surfeit of time that I can allot to NewYou. But while here, I will do what I can.... To friends from way back, I do hope you all keep on maintaining. Keep in mind that Plan is one of the tools in the Maintenance toolbox - but not one that should need to be used often. There are several good thoughts already in here (check the Maintenance Forum) that indicate that Plan has a limited efficacy once you are down near your true weight. Of course, if you have put on many Kgs, then Plan may well be needed. Thanks to all those who have offered me their love and support during my hard times (2012 to 2015). I keep smiling, and, I must say, the smiles are a bit more common these days - so all good, Regards, Koh

Re: Koh's blog - "Not the Nine O'Clock News"
Hi Koh!
Wow! Thanks for your post - I had no idea about any of it - how it all started or why you had disappeared. I'm really glad you are back, for however long it may be, and hope that you continue to smile. Your words of wisdom on this forum have been invaluable and I'm sure I'm not the only one who loves you! You have this knack of making each person here feel valued and special and in a world where fat people are shamed and treated badly, this is like gold. Thank you for all the love you share with us and for giving us back our dignity. Much love always Louise |
