Yippee!!
I'm not your typical girl when it comes to movies and tv shows. I love a good action flick and weirdo sci-fi/fantastical stuff. I'm not all D&D, but I loved LOTR. That's Lord of the Rings. I don't dress up as weird characters but I waited in line 2 hours for the opening day of X-Men X2. So what's my point, here. My point is Save the Cheerleader, Save the World.
That's a reference to a now cancelled NBC show called Heroes. The show died after it's fourth season-I stopped watching it about 2 episodes into that season btw-but the series' overall storyline is the subject for our discussion today: Save the Cheerleader, Save the World.
You know I have my VWBs. Well, today I was chitchatting with Roxie and she said a little something to me that just resonated in my brain like one of those Tibetan Singing Bowls. She said "You are such a good cheerleader". It got me thinking. Save the Cheerleader, Save the World.
We're all cheerleaders! We all need each other to encourage us on our good days (just take a look at my weight again!) and our bad days. We need to encourage as much as we need encouragement. Or Inspiration, if you will. Imagine if everyday there was someone telling someone else some words that helped them get though even 5 minutes of something hard. Could be emotional, could be physical, could be mental. I'm not just talking weight loss here, but it's definitely included. Imagine if YOU had someone telling you some Inspiring words everyday. Save the Cheerleader, Save the World.
Get it? You're the cheerleader. I'm the cheerleader. Everybody's the cheerleader. Think about a 5k or a marathon run. Think about those water stations; those very important lifeline-like water stations. Runners need those to continue on course. Now think of yourself as that virtual water station and everyone you meet today as a runner (whether in the healthy-weightloss-world or not). Give 'em a big dose of Inspiration. And maybe a little water'd be good, too. You never know which Cheerleader you may be saving by being a Cheerleader yourself.Ra Ra Ree and Stuff!

She's right, you are a great cheerleader!! And you're right...we are all cheerleaders!!
Ra ra!
Hey, good job on the weigh in! You are doing awesome. Keep on keepin' on girl!! And thanks for being there to cheer me on!
She's definitely right -- and way to go on the weigh in!!
I loved Heroes. Sigh. I hate that it started to suck after the first season -- I hung on through most of the second season, and tried a bit of the third then a bit of the fourth. Then the cancelled it.
I just don't have the energy to devote to any serialized program other than True Blood.
Aw. Thank YOU gals for your cheers!
@Amanda Can't get enough of True Blood. I'm looking forward to a movie.
Sometimes our Love Fests overwhelm me. Truly.

Thanks for stopping by Dillypoo Chatter! Rah rah sis boom bah!
What is a VWB?
Howdywhoo Dillypoo!
A VWB is a virtual workout buddy. I have 4 of them. I text them and they text me about working out. It's kinda like having "a Sponsor" in weightloss.

My phone died last night. My charger was left at work.

Will you ever forgive me?
