Just another 3fatchicks.com weblog

Well, this is my first blog, and i guess I should start out by saying something about myself.

I am Chrys, a 30 year old female in colorado.  Most of my life I have been a big girl, ridiculed by strangers, “friends” and even family. At age 12-13 my mom put me on slimfast diet and dexatrim diet pills. You can guess how well that worked my self esteem.  Over the last 10 years it’s gone from bad to worse for me. I have become a shut-in, hiding from the outside world and their judgemental eyes. cutting social ties and replacing them with online friends who can’t see me.  I leave my house maybe 3 times a month, and most everything I need I order and have delivered to my door step.  Some days I am so ashamed and disappointed in myself I can’t even look in the mirror.

I found 3fatchicks.com one day while googling and finally decided to try it out. I am not huge on the support group things as I have tried it before, and well lets just say it didn’t turn out well.   But I Figure I might as well try this out, perhaps a place to vent, talk, and share will help me enough so I can once again venture out and join the human race.

    Hi Chrys, I’m originally from Denver (live in Paris now) and go home to visit about once a year — I still love (and miss) Colorado.

    I’m a pretty private person in real life, but have really enjoyed the online community in the blogs. I don’t do much in the 3FC forums, but I have made a number of friends in the blogs.
