Smile Newbie Here...WOW...can't believe I'm doing this

Hello All,

Came across this site while researching many, many diet programs. Been 'lurking' for a week now trying to decide if I really want to do this. I never signed up for a chat/blog (heck I don't know even know what you call this) but I am tired of being overweight! Guess I am figuring, if I can't get the support at home, maybe I can get the support here.

Now time to start some serious reading

I'm sure you will find this site, and the people on the forums to be very helpful; I know I have. Welcome to 3FC, and good luck.

Smile Welcome!

It's good to have you here, I'm pretty new, too, and love it! I have gleaned a lot just by reading. When I post someone is right there to encourage or share a victory or just support me. I love this place!

Welcome!

BTW (by the way) this is called a forum. Each topic is called a thread, and each reply is called a post. There are lots of abbreviations, some are obvious, others not so much so be sure to ask when you don't understand. You can start a blog (which is like an online diary/journal that others can read) if you like by clicking "free diet blogs" at the top of the page. Everyone here is really helpful, I'm sure you'll love it!

Thank you Aclai4067 for letting me know this is a forum. I'll get the hang of all this...lol. I think I might just start the diet blog. Can't hurt, huh?

Thanks Ryanne for the welcome!

This is - without a doubt - a fantastic place to come for information, support, and accountability! 3FC has been a WONDERFUL help on my journey.

In fact, I don't think I would be a successful maintainer without the folk here. They are just the BEST!

So, come back often - it really does help!
