Ok here we gooo.

My name is Andrea I am 24,,,I have a beautifully evil 4 year old daughter. I am engaged to the love of my life and he is my biggest motivator. I have been overweight since I turned like 2 or something because I was only a 5lb baby. Dont know what happened there. Thank the goddess that my daughter looks like she is going to be a healthy weight when she is my age. She is even at a healthy weight now, she keeps growing up instead of out lol. I have tried many many diets until this time, I am doing a combination of a few as well as my own made up plan. lol I am hoping to find other like me, I am looking for a buddy though...someone I can talk to every day, we can motivate each other!! I have a blog you can see that at 3fatchicks.com/diet-blogs/anjnsmn ...I think that is the address.

Current weight 284
start weight 293
goal weight 185 ( I like being big)

I do not have an idea of what I want to weigh just what I want to look like or what size I wanna be.

Ive got 6 tattoos and my ears peirced of course, my tongue is peirced and previous peircings that have closed are naval, lip and libre.

Once I get to where I wanna be I am going to get my lip done again...or my eyebrow. My belly button has been done wrongly and gotten infected too many times soo there is WAY too much scar tissue for someone to try to peirce through, might get the sides done though, or the bottom!!

[Zombie latte]

Status: Um? A-sexual... at best? Not much in to the concept of relationships. >.>

Pets: Um, Doogle-bomb-diggity... Our pet rat. Savik-cam and Mr. Spoke (Our identical cats), and Fifi and Kuma-garu (emi) our dense, but loveable, dogs.

Degree/Job: Ga and GameStop

Music: I listen to just about everything, even blue grass and show tunes.

TV: To tell you the truth, I don't really watch TV. Glee, sadly enough, and maybe family guy and CSI but that's about it.

Movies: I couldn't even begin to label off all the movies I watch. It goes on forever.

Interests/Hobbies: Gaming and computer tech, full out nerd, digital art as well.

Dieting history: I don't really have one.

Goals:My main goal is to loose body fat and replace it with muscle. If I can get down to a size 9 and see a noticeable difference in my muscle structure I'll be happy.


Religion: I've never had one.

Loving that I found this sub-forum!

Name: Jessie

Age: 33

Location: Midwest

Status: Married for 5 years, no kids

Top Weight: around 190

Current Weight: 157

Goal Weight:140 (maybe I'd go lower, but would be perfectly happy at 140)

Weight Loss Plan: Counting calories and working out

Music: Lots of it. It's my passion and we see as much live music as we can. Tea Leaf Green, Widespread Panic, looooove funk and old school soul. Anything on vinyl. The ipod is reserved for the car or the gym. At home, we only listen to vinyl.

Piercings: Ears and bellybutton (had that since high school, I have no idea why I've never taken it out) Used to have my nose and tongue done. Tongue seriously messed up my teeth.

Tattoos: 2, technically 3 if you count that one current tattoo is a cover up of a very old tattoo. I have plans for future tattoos.

[JessicaB]

I've been on 3FC for a couple weeks now, but just discovered this forum was here. My name is Jessica, and I'm 28, a software developer, married, with a 2 year old daughter.

My top weight was 185, just under 2 months ago, and figured I'd better get my *** in gear, as I was a couple pounds heavier than my husband. I'm hoping to get back to 135, which is where I was at when I finished university, before getting a desk job.

Right now, I only have a few facial piercings (4ga nostrils, vertical medusa, bridge). But in high school and university, I was really heavy into piercings, the most I had at any one given time was 62. When I was pregnant with my daughter, I took most of them out, and even more after she was born, because she became my new priority (and liked to pull on them).

I do have quite a few tattoos though, a full sleeve, a large piece from my hip to my armpit on one side, and then probably a dozen or so other small to medium tattoos.

So I've always highly identified with the tattooed / pierced sub-culture, and am excited to have discovered this forum (but honestly I'm not really sure how much an alternative forum will help with my weight loss :P)
