Default I need help...and friends who understand and can lift me up!
Hello all!

I am writing this with a weary heart and a tired mind. I started on a journey to recover from abuse as a child and I ended up very fat! I am a binge eater and I need all the help and encouragement I can get. I know I am not alone in trying to conquer this. I really appreciate forums and have been on several others relating to surviving abuse, as well as hobbies and interests of mine. This is the first "fat" related forum I have been on and this is my very first post. Thanks for listening and I hope to be able to contribute something helpful eventually once I gain control over my weight.

I wish you all the luck in the world to over come this too. If you overcame the abuse as a child, you can do this. I love 3fc, everyone here are going through the same struggles together.

Hi Squishy!
Your strength has brought you this far - you evidently have the determination to achieve your desire for a healthy and happy life -the support you need is here - you can do this and we'll all be here to cheer you on!

Glad to have you join us! There are lots & lots of different groups and forums - I'm sure you'll find some that will keep you motivated, inspired and entertained! There's also info and first hand advice on different eating plans and exercise to help choose the right one for you and get through the ups and downs.

There are bunches of people here with more to lose and some with less - the bottom line is that we all have to do it a day at a time. The good thing is that we'll have lots of company along the way.

I've only been here a few months myself, having NEVER been part of an online forum. What has been so eye-opening is how much it has helped me. Whenever I feel overwhelmed or defeated, I just log on and read some of the success stories, complete with their before & after photos - or read about others still dealing day to day with their challenges - and before I know it, the time has flown by and so have all the thoughts of cheating or giving up.

So welcome - you 've found the right place - join in by inspiring us and being inspired!

All the best - good luck with your goals,
Lee
