Hi, I am new to this site. I was wanting to be involved with a community that I have something in common with. My family is supportive but when your the only one that is overweight and the only one dieting. They say they understand but I don't think they do. My weight in may was 170 had surgery and since I have been eating like crazy, keep telling myself I can work it off but no. When I wake in the mornings food is my first thought. I know its a mental things but I can't seem to kick it. I would like get to know others who truely know how I feel.

Welcome to 3fcs! You will find there are lots of topic areas here for specific issues. Search around the site and jump right in!

I'm new here too. And, but for the surgery, been through the same.
Still, I got over it! The best thing you can do to distract you from uber
hunger is to put your attention into something else.

Something that gets all of your attention. For me, fast-paced/action videogames (such as Halo) does
wonders for me, I get "in the zone" when I'm playing. I hope you find your
mind consuming activity soon. (Rubik cube works too!)

And don't worry, you can do it!!

Hi and welcome to 3FC.

Good luck with your goals.

Hugs
Michelle

Thanks all of you for the encouraging words.
