Question:
Who here would use an ObesityHelp.com bumper sticker if any were available?

It's been brought to my attention that some people might like ObesityHelp.com bumper stickers. Any feedback on that topic?    — ericklein (posted on December 5, 2000)

I would deffinately like a bumper sticker or car tag or anything mentioning this website. That is the most wonderful idea i've heard yet. I also love the ideas of T-shirts and buisness cards. Anything to advertise this wonderful site. Vicki

I like the idea but would personally prefer the static cling type for the window. Shelley

I like the idea but I would prefer, as mentioned before, a clear-type sticker for the window...Honk, Honk! P.S. When will the T-shirts be available?

I love the idea of a clear window clinger, but bumper stickers are too hard to remove.

A static cling. Can we please resolve the tee-shirts before moving on to anything else? Thanks.

As with the t-shirts, I would NOT wear nor display anything on my body or car that has the word "obesity" on it! Yuck! But, I would gladly pass out a business card with the website address.

I wouldn't display a bumper sticker, not only for the sticky reasons, but because it wouldn't really give me the chance to tell my story. I like the one-on-one relationship of a T-shirt or business card better. Who is going to stop you in your car to ask about obesityhelp.com? Worse, it could set you up for some road rage or harrassment. I recently started a new job, and because I'm only about 1/2 way through my weight loss(although no longer MO..yippee!), and know a few people who can benefit by WLS, I've decided to let the grapevine work in my favor. I've told two thin people about my WLS (funny how they say they could never imagine me at 280!), and I am hoping it will filter back to those who need it. Hmm...gossip a good thing??? Another trick that I discovered accidently was having obesityhelp.com up on my screen at work when one of my co-workers came to work on my computer. He hasn't asked me anything yet, but I'm hoping he will eventually, or when I have the chance to establish more camraderie, perhaps I'll approach him.

I too, like a previous poster, would not want to wear on my body or stick something on my car that said "obesity" anything. Especially once I get thin - - I don't know that people would "get it" However, a card to hand out to those that might be interested in how I lost weight might be okay.

I would probably not display a sticker but I would gladly wear a T-shirt or drink from a mug that advertised the site.

I would rather have a 32 oz. water container that says something like "Former Fat Chick ... thanks Obesity.com!" or "Big Loser...thanks Obesity.com!"

I like the window clingy idea too. Something Like a hand waving good bye to Obesity and hello to FREEDOOM.. I am also liking the bumper sticker idea but I would buy 10 shirts before I would buy bumper stickers. My car is not as visable as I am walking into a bulding with a fresh Obesiyhelp.com T-shirt.

I like the t-shirt and water glass/mug ideas, but probably wouldn't put anything on my car. Another idea -- how about iron-on decal versions of the t-shirt logos? These could go on ANY item of clothing and shouldn't be any more complicated than the shirts to offer (maybe less so).

I dont put ANY bumper stickers on my car , but a window cling thing I would.

I don't apply bumper stickers to my car, however, I would definitely use a window cling application type thing.

I like the idea of window clings, business cards and t-shirts. As for the business card idea, I was at the mall tonight ans there were a few people I would have liked to help with one.

I would prefer, as mentioned before, a clear-type sticker for the window...or a business type card, that can be passed on to those that are interested.

I used to be involved in politics . A bumper sticker on a single car was worth about $500.00 in free advertising. I think it is an excellent way to bring attention to a "cure" for obesity as well as possible revenue to this website. But as the previous poster said perhaps the window cling should be offered as well , since many people don't like to use an actual bumper sticker. Personally , I would offer both.
