The weight loss discussion website weightism.org has just launched forums to discuss weight loss techniques and issues for its members. After running the article directory for the last 2 years, the administrators finally decided to give up on that approach because community members wanted a place to discuss weight loss problems and not necessarily a place to post articles. The concept of a ‘forum’ will help users to discuss issues and act like a community.
The weight loss forum will also help users to edit their posts more easily and discuss things with each other in a more realistic environment. In coming months, it is expected that members will post several useful articles which will be overall very beneficial for anyone looking to lose weight. The website currently has 11 forum categories:
– General Weight Loss Talk
– Success Stories
– Dressing tips to look thin
– Health Issues
– Childhood Obesity
– Love and Relationship
– Exercise
– Dieting, Diet plans and Healthy recipes
– Diet Pills and Surgery
– Healthy Lifestyle and
– The Lounge for Off Topic Discussions
Among the features which users will be able to use include, ability to add their own pictures, do personal messaging if both users have enabled communication preferences and insert images in post. Also the enhance editor will enable them to post more interesting posts where they can bold, underline and make several font based enhancements using the toolbar.
The forum is powered using the MyBB forum application. Weightism refers to the discrimination faced by both obese and underweight individuals. Articles and posts on weightism should help users to enjoy a community feeling and benefit from each other’s knowledge. You can visit weightis.org weight loss forum and create an account. All services on the forum are free but caution is advised to use the forum advice only after consulting an expert or a doctor.
