This is sad news. Out of all the forums I have visited this has always been my favorite. It has been the most friendly and easy to use. That's too bad if it is going to close. I think Peter deserves a round of applause  for all the hard work he did over the years and the wonderful gift that he gave us. Thank you Peter. CPH has changed my life forever in a very profound way.  I will never forget this place or the people I have met on here who have helped me along the way... Thank you Nir too.
I guess I will now see if I can go and check out this other site, like everyone else.
Will I be needing your help Nir? I'll go check first and then come back and beg for help.

The link was in the email you received a couple of weeks ago from Calories Per Hour. That email also contained your BETA code. The link is https://beta.livestrong.com
Send me a PM if you've lost that email

Here's the group MidgeH started for those who manage to login.
http://beta.livestrong.com/groups/group/cphers-exploring-livestrong
Probably at some point, I'm guessing CPH will be incorporated into the Livestrong web site. Since the email said that it would be the new home of CaloriesPerHour.
It seems a lot of people either did not get the email or did not recognize it and didn't read it.
Thanks to Nir for being so patient and helpful.

Yesterday I sent an email to Demand Media expressing my concern about losing access to a site I feel is directly successful in my ability to lose weight. Last night this is the reply I received from them:
Hi James,
Thanks for writing in. We appreciate your sharing your feedback with us, and your concern about losing access to key, important CaloriesPerHour features is 100% understandable.
Starting very soon, LIVESTRONG.COM will offer a full suite of diet tracking and calorie calculation, powered by The Daily Plate (thedailyplate.com), which has collaborated with Calories Per Hour at various times in the past.
It's our hope -- and optimistic expectation! -- that once The Daily Plate section of LIVESTRONG.COM goes live, you'll find all the diet tracking tools you need!
Thanks again,
-Susy
susysez
I admit, yesterday I was set to threaten Demand Media that either they keep CPH open or they would be losing me. This was my "shoot first, ask questions" reaction. Now that I've had a chance to think about it after readin Susy's reply, I will wait and see what will happen.
My opinion, Peter has done an excellent job in doing more than creating tne CPH and the tools in it. Peter has been a personal mentor to almost each and every one of us. I've seen founders who have created forums to step away from public view once everything had taken flight. This site has not only taken flight, it has also rocketed to the moon and back. Peter was visible the entire time and has replied to just about every new person who posted.
It's not just Peter either. I feel that attitude has rubbed off on many other people. I do hope that if LifeStrong.com will be used to replace CPH they are able to continue with the same attitude Peter has used all along. I admit I am bothered that Peter is kept in the dark regarding the plans for CPH.
I guess I'll just have to wait and see what happens.

It will never be able to have the feel of CPH. That place is huge!! It is totally impersonal--how can it be personal when it is so big??
I don't know, I don't mean to be negative. But I am really disappointed.

| The Daily Plate now has a tab on the Livestrong site. I don't remember seeing it there before, but I am getting old. Maybe CPH will be moved and have a tab next to The Daily Plate. This is hopeful speculation on my part of course. Just trying to keep everybody's hopes up.

Ok, here's something weird. Sometimes the tab is not there. And I don't know what I clicked on to get it to come up for the Daily Plate. I know, I must really sound crazy now.
But here's the address (of course you have to be registered to the site)

Sassykat, I took the reply to James as an indication that TDP is going to be their platform. Its only a question of "when" and what functionality from CPH that they might integrate into TDP.

Sassy - I tried looking around and didn't see the tab you say may be there for TDP. Where was it located? I will look again.
A strange thing I've noticed - I was never registered at TDP before, so I had no problems using my CPH user name over at Livestrong. Then, I registered over at TDP with the same user name...all was fine for a minute, and I've just noticed it won't let me view the forums once I sign in. I get the message 'this board has no forums'. 
Perhaps it's just the same problem with the combining of the boards and all.

Actually my TDP user ID is MollyMoo24 with different capitalization. Cannot get in with either capitalization. It recognizes the user ID and will let me reset the password but will never actually let me get in, even with that password.

If you're signed in to Livestrong.com and then use this address
http://beta.livestrong.com/thedailyplate/
The Daily Plate tab shows up. It's a white tab at the top on the right and then lower underneath are options of: Fitness, Forums, Groups, Diets, etc
But the forum section does not appear to be ready for use. My interpretation is that it has not been "moved" yet.
And I'm just assuming that a person wouldn't just purchase  and then "throw it away." I could be wrong. There are so many illogical things going on in this world.
I too, cherish the friendships on here and I prefer the layout and qualities of over other forums. We'll just have to wait and see what they do with it I guess. I'm just trying to remain hopeful over something I obviously have no control over.

Ok, I guess I was wrong FIRE MAN JOE (my hubs) just signed on over at Livestrong.com and under that link where The Daily Plate shows up, when he is signed in, the forum part does show up, (The Daily Plate forum), but when I am signed in it says "this board has no forums"
It must be a work in progress. They're going to have to get all the bugs worked out probably.

Thanks for that, Sassy - I was beginning to think I was nuts.  I tried that last link you posted, and sure enough - there was TDP tab - Yay! And then when I tried to visit the forums - I got the same message again 'this board has no forums'.
I'm not nuts...I'm not nuts...
I bet you're right; it's a work in progress.

I went back to re-read that email from LIVESTRONG, with my beta code on it. In BOLD letters, is this sentence: "And, it will soon be the new home of Calories Per Hour." To me that just doesn't sound like they plan on shutting this site down.......it sounds more like they will incorporate it into the LIVESTRONG site. I sure hope so.

I've noticed that http://www.livestrong.com/forums/ now takes you directly to The Daily Plate forums embedded within LiveStrong, and same forum posts are simultaneously accessible at that URL and at http://www.thedailyplate.com/forum/
I just hope they find a way of doing that for the CPH forums

I see what you mean, Nir - cool. And finally when I log in I don't get that silly 'there are no forums on this board' message from TDP. I can actually SEE the forums now. That's encouraging.

Hello all -
Is there a way to get a beta invite code to Livestrong.com? I have not been a member at the dailyplate or at CPH, just happened to stumble across this forum while doing some research on the Livestrong.com beta.
thanks in advance

| Hey, I've done a little exploring on Livestrong today. I like that you have a friends group, that you can allow "in", so to speak. I've hesitated a bit with pics here, because anyone can view our diaries.........and once they join they can see everything. You have a bit more control on Livestrong. I would feel comfortable having pics on my profile, and other info, knowing I control who sees it.

Good points Hisgal - about having a bit of control. I'm slowly (very) figuring a few things out over there...such a newbie. One thing that I love however is TDP! Wow! I am actually thinking of consistently tracking my calories there. MyPlate is the first one I've ever tried that actually has the foods I eat listed!  Their food list must be huge! I was just checking and even some off-brand frozen veggies I eat are on there...everything I've checked so far. Amazing. I've tried doing this at FitDay numerous times and always end up exasperated as they never had some of my specific foods and I always ended up with the task of 'customizing' each food...by then, I lost interest already.
At least we are trying to find some good points eh?

Just reporting that as of today I was able to log in as me (MollyMoo24) on Livestrong and have joined the group over there.
Still haven't figured out yet how we are going to be able to replicate our community feel that we have here with the diaries and all. There is a blog section for each member and also a daily diary section but its not quite the same as what we have here. Will have to keep playing with it I guess. Or hopefully more info to come? Suggestions welcome. I have to keep my cow emoticon though.
PLEASE NOTE: You have privacy settings in your "My Settings" Section. Pay close attention to what you want to be public, friends, or private.

I just got an email from them today regarding the 'public launching' of Livestrong, and I was sooo scared to click on CPH thinking we might have disappeared...whew!
We encourage you to visit LIVESTRONG.COM and discover these new tools, plus nutrition and diet articles and videos, as it will be the new home of Calories Per Hour in the near future. Be on the lookout for more information about when this transition will take place.
Transition...yikes.

So I have heard a couple of short news stories about Luvestrong today. Apparently Lance Armstrong is begining to do publicity about it.
I know I said it before, but this thing is going to be a MONSTER.

Got the Daily Plate changeover email and managed to sign in this morning. Woo, I think? I had to reset my password though, I must have changed it to 'arrrrghhhh' in frustration when I couldn't use my name for beta!
Bit shy of it... the forums don't look as extensive as they are here. Gonna trawl through and see if I can find everyone there, if I fail, my username is morbidlemon still. :)
 The site design is pretty nice, but it just feels massive... like we'll lose that small community type thing we have going on here.

Yeah, Mol, I noticed that! I was a bit shocked when I opened up my profile and saw my full name, etc. When I registered with that, I thought it would be available to administration only...........not to all who are on the site.
I do like that feature though..........I set mine to "friends only". I've often been tempted to post some pics here, but don't like the idea that anyone all over the world could see them. I might post a few over at Livestrong, in my profile. I like having a face to go with the names.........like Sassykat, Nir and others do. I just wasn't comfortable with it yet. But, I do it knowing only you guys could see them.

You mean you don't really look like your avatar kitty and I'm not really Scoobs???!!! Sorry, I've been on this computer way too long today. After reading your post, I went back and checked everything for 'friends only'. I was 'public' and then thought a bit differently. And yeah, it's cool to share pics, too!
Still can't read the forums over there.

I'm sorry...I wasn't very clear - D'oh! I meant to say I couldn't read the forums at Livestrong/The Daily Plate....their discussion board. I got to see it once, and it looked interesting. I just would click on the word 'forum' and bam it was there...now it's not, again.
I forgot to add - did anyone see Lance Armstrong on Letterman last night? I caught just a snippet at the end and David was commenting that 'Livestrong is live today'. Wonder if they talked much about it.
