New to 3FC and tired of feeling old!
 

Hi all.

I turned 35 this summer (had a All-Eighties-themed party. It was gnarly! :)), but I have never felt so bad about myself. I got into a funk and couldn't seem to bring myself out, especially after gaining 40 pounds since then. It didn't help that I had gone thru all the tests, preliminary screenings, etc for WLS, but then realized it wasn't something I could really afford, since insurance wouldn't help at all. I reconciled that with the fact that I LOVE food. I want to be able to have those moments of gluttonous ecstasy. Now, I just need those moments to be rare, not every day. :(

But now that I have found 3FC and all you lovely ladies, I think I am starting a new chapter. And I think I found it just in time. I've been a lurker for about a week, but now I'm ready to be a part of this great community. Plus, I realized I need yall.

I live in Orlando, teach high school English, and have lots o' weight to lose. I live with my fella and my cute mini-dachshund, Kemo Sabe.

Thanks for listening. And here's to my impending happiness! :crossed:
