Hey all! I lurked on the boards for awhile about a year ago... Now I am back again, and ready to get rid of this weight!

I am looking for anyone who wants to buddy up with me!!! I need all the extra motivation, and someone to help me stay accountable!!!

Hey Amber!

Welcome back, settle in, and keep posting. We have lots of regular chat/accountability threads, so you can have a whole GROUP of buddies for the extra motivation.

Can't wait to hear more from you soon!

I'm back 'on the wagon' myself.

My biggest issue is excer*shudder*cise. I hate to sweat, but I hate the size of my butt more so I'm learning to love feelin' the burn.
We (my boyfriend and I) walked yesterday and we're walkin' again today. That'll be two days in a row.

Hi Mary ~

A Great Dane counts as 4 or 5 kids if you ask me !! My aunt has a wonderful Great Dane, Sara, and we met a few of them in the So. California dog parks. Very cool dogs *grin* I just saw a news item yesterday about the "TALLEST dog in the world", a GD, who, I think, is in the Guiness Book of Records. He/she is also a therapy dog. Black & white.

I'm obviously a dog lover. My puppers, age 11 & 10, are lab/boxer/pitbull, and Golden Retriever/pitbull, both rescues.

Best of luck on your journey here at 3FC. Maybe we'll run into each other here again!!

Teri

Hi Amber!

You'll find lots of friendly people, supportive people, here ... and great info, too.

Lots of support groups that are also very welcoming to newcomers! Good luck :-)
