Well, I just joined about an hour ago and I was looking for the message board that I belonged to. I thought 10-20 lbs. was a lot to lose, but I guess it's not at 3FC.
With that being said, here's a short bio on me... I'm 15 and on a diet (but not any specific one). I've been unhappy with my weight since maybe age 12 but didn't do much about it until I was 14. I cut out fattening foods and basically got from 160lbs to about 145lbs (where I am now) and in a size 11. I want to be thin... there's no doubt about that. I'm really tired of hating my body. I can't really find support anywhere else and I can't stay on track with my diet. So I'm hoping here I'll find some inspiration here.
Geordan, welcome! ANY amount is a lot to lose if you're having trouble getting it off. I'm sure you'll find lots of support here, and please don't hesitate to post in other areas of 3FC!
I just noticed this new section of the forum... what a great idea!
I'll just slink out now...
