need help
 

Hi i'm new to this site and I don't know what i'm doing so if this is wrong please let me know. I don't know what a thread is or how to talk to anyone so I decided to try this. Thanks for any help

Hello Basic...You got it right. You can reply back to this thread to and say more. Welcome!!

Well we have alot of support and encouragement to offer here. In no time you will be a pro at working your way around this site. :)

Welcome!! :cheers:

whats a journal

This is like a chat room right. If I have something different to say do I keep writing in here or do I post a new thread? Sorry I ask so many questions I just have questions about diet and exercise that I can't find anywhere else so I looked around and all of you seem to be so nice and help each other out.

Yes, we rock, if I do say so myself. :)


Ask away!

This is not a chat room in the way I think you are thinking. I am not sure how you use chat here. I've never used it. Someone else might post though and be able to help you on that. You can still post your questions here if you want to. They just may not get answered really fast.

I've been overweight most of my life weight over 200 since grade school the only time I've lost weight it was in some odd way. The first time I lost was when my grandmother died and I lost to 165. Then I had a baby gained 60 pounds then took depo shot gained 30 pounds in 3 months so I couldn't take the depo any more. When I found out I was going to have my second child I was 255 pounds by the time I had her I was 220. I still weight 220 but my body looks like it did when i was 255 does this make any since.

Well Basic75 - You've definetly come to the right place if you're looking for tons of wonderful advice & support! Welcome! :wave:

Welcome, Basic! The Depo shot made me gain 30 pounds to, which I still haven't lost (I'm going to now, though!). I was really PO-ed that I wasn't told the weight gain was a risk--I'd never gained weight on birth control pills, so I assumed the risk would be the same. Grrrr!

Journalling here is like journalling you'd do on your own. You write your thoughts about whatever you want. You can post it and allow people to comment on it, or you can keep it private. I love journalling here! It's been very helpful. You have to register separately to journal (just click on "Journal" at the top of this page to get to the right page), but you can use your same screen name.

Feel free to ask us questions! I've only been here about 3 weeks, but everyone's made me feel so at home.

Hi and welcome. Here is a link to the basics here on 3FC.

If there is something else you need help with about the forum, just feel free to ask.

Everytime I've gone to the chat room no ones there but I posted a chit chat thread in hopes that we could use that for a way to talk about thing unrelated to diet. They have one on Jaded Ladies and it's real fun
