Hi everyone.

I'm a 24 year old Pantheist. Currently living in Oregon, but moving to the UK on Samhain. I'm engaged to a great (English) guy, and my life is kid of in limbo right now as I wait for October to get here and pack up all of my stuff.

I've been heavy most of my life, and have decided I've finally had enough excuses and I'm going to actually do something about it. I'm so glad to have found this forum!

Hi everyone, I am Jennifer and I have been lurking for a while, but used to post alot on the 300+ board. I am 26 and in Memphis, Tn. I am married but living separately at the moment but still much in love with my token Southern Baptist husband. No kids, but lots of nieces and nephews and god-daughters to spoil rotten. I am hard to classify. I guess I am an urban Southern Celtic Reconstructionist...if that makes any sense at all. I hope that posting again will help to keep me motivated and I hope to get to know everyone.

HI to everyone.
I am so glad to have found you all. But I just like minds and hearts always do find one another. I am a soon to be 35 year old SAHM. With a wonderful live in boyfriend. 2 of my 3 children live with us. Openly Pagan even though I do not pratice from a ritual stand point. I also was raised Cathlioc, I questioned it at the young age of 10 and almost got myself kicked out of the Cathlioc school I attened at the time LOL
May the Lord and Lady Bless us all as we fight the fat!
I need help getting up off my big A** to exercise! I would rather to something , like pull carpet!
Blessed Be!

I am so glad that I found this forum!
I am 28 years old, married, and I have a daughter (7-from a previous marriage), and 2 stepsons (12 and 10). We have 4 ferrets and I work at a daycare......so we are always busy!
I was raised Catholic (shoved on me) and hated it. I started questioning the CCD teachers about everything in 6th grade/7th grade and I could never get any answers. They either avoided my questions or thought I was confused and would go on a rant that didn't make any sense to me. By the time I hit high school I knew that I didn't belong in church, but I didn't know what I believed so I told everyone I was atheist and then I was agnostic. I didn't live at home anymore, so I didn't have to go to church anymore! By the time I graduated I was starting to get into wicca, but I still wasn't sure if that was my path. And now 10 years later, I am still searching, exploring and keeping an open-mind.
I love all kinds of music, I read all types of books, and I LOVE arts and crafts---wish I had more time or could manage my time better to do everything I want to do. Same problem I have with losing weight---but I need to make the time because my health is in jeapordy-- between ganglion cysts, tendonitis in both hands, acid reflux, sleep apnea and now endometrial hyperplasia. I need to get healthy and stay healthy before it gets worse!
WOW, that was a lot! Guess I needed to get that out!
THANK YOU ALL

Hello, all! I'm new here. Obviously. I'm Sabrina. I'm married (somewhat newly), no kids, one cat.

I've been a Pagan for... um... gosh ten whole years now? Where does the time go. I don't have any specific tradition or path right now. Sort of been in "search mode" for the last few years. I was involved in ADF for a couple of years before that.

As for the weight loss... I've tried WW in the past and a few other things. Now I'm trying something different called Thintuition which is intuitive eating if you've ever heard of that. I'm hoping it works! I've always considered myself heavy even though when I look at pictures of myself as a kid I don't think I was as heavy as I thought I was back then. I've gotten to the point where I'm too heavy. I can't be on my feet long without my back hurting. And recently a friend of mine died of a heart attack at age 33. He was heavy too and his doc told him to lose weight but I guess he didn't think it was that big of a deal. His death has been a shock to my system. It's sad that it's taken that, but it's opened my eyes. Sorry to be such a downer on a Friday!

Hi Sabrina!

Sorry to hear about your friend - it is a real shock and an eye opener when someone that young passes.

You are taking the right steps to take care of yourself

I'm new to 3FC and I'm really glad I found the pagan corner of this forum!

My name is Ruby, but most people call me Lyss because of a book I'm writing.

I am 23 years old, and a single, solitary, eclectic pagan living in baltimore City. I do my own thing, and that makes me happy. I'm a very spiritual person, and I dont always have time for the ritual work, which makes me sad. I work as a video store clerk, and I'm Mommy to 2 dogs, and 4 cats. Oh, and once a year I staff a convention in downtown Baltimore known as Otakon.

Interests: Cooking (though not so well), animal causes, reading, singing, writing, I love horror movies (especially bad ones), and japanese animation. My taste in music ranges from Alternative to pop to rock to metal to all kinds of japanese music, everything... Just not into rap though...

And a blog!

Nice to meet everyone!

You know, I thought I'd made the introductions on this forum as well, but I guess I missed it somehow!

Well, I'm Nikaia. I'm 21 and a college student. I split with the United Methodist Church in which I was raised at age 14, when an older friend gave me a copy of Scott Cunningham's "Wicca for the Solitary Practitioner". She was into it for the usual teen reasons - "Ooh, look at me, I'm a witch. I'll hex you!" - but it struck me strangely. I'd been questioning the youth group teachers to distraction during that time period, and they could never satisfy with their answers. But reading about Wicca, something in me said "Yes! Exactly!" It was like coming home.

In recent years, I've become more open about being a Witch, and more focused on my spirituality; or perhaps, just more aware of it. I've felt called to service of the Lady, and am pondering training as a priestess of the Sisterhood of the Silver Branch.

I look forward to getting to know you all. Blessed be.
