Default You guys are inspiring me so much!

When I joined 3FC, I had a lofty goal to lose 50 pounds. I was pretty confident I could do it, but wanted to search the net for a supportive weight-loss forum. Holy cow - I didn't know how blessed I was to find this site!!

Seeing all of the pictures of the befores and afters has inspired me so much. I have looked at many of them. In the before, I tend to tell myself, "Wow, she looks kind of like me." Then I see the after! At first, I was telling myself how great it was for you guys that you could do it. Then, my thinking started to shift. Now, I think, "Wow! That is fantastic - AND I can do that, too!"

My goal has shifted, too. My goal is to lose 100 pounds. Lofty goal? Yes - but if you guys can do it, so can I!!

Thank you guys so much for welcoming me here to 3FC and for being such an inspiration to me.

Amen! I agree 100%. I feel so luck to have found this place. The before and after pictures are a constant source of inspiration. If other people can do it, real people who had real struggles and got through it, then so can I!

100 pounds is not impossible - it just takes time. You are on your way.
