Hi!

My weight has been a struggle my whole life but ever since starting college it has gotten out of hand. I finally graduated last month (after over 7 years) and I started a new job a couple months ago. Now that college is over and I am settled in a steady job, I am ready to get really serious about my weight. I'm going on a program with my mom so we can be each other's accountability partners, but I'm looking forward to meeting new people at every step in the journey to learn tips and be encouraged that this can work! I've been perusing the forum and I've already come across some great insight.

Here we go!!!

Hi Erin!

Congratulations on your degree and new job! It's great that you have the support of your mom and each of you has the other for accountability. Welcome to 3FC!

WELCOME...You'll find a great bunch of people here at every stage of the journey. I love hanging out in the goals forum. Although I wasn't over 300 pounds (I think), I found the 300+ forum to be so encouraging when I started. Cheering you on to goal

"Erin, welcome, glad to have you join us. I suggest you look for a Challenge or Support group to join; small check-in groups make it easier to connect, get involved, and be accountable. We have groups centering around specific diet plans, themes such as the 300+, or age groups, so find one that inspires you and just post to join!
