Ladyfyre,
Sheena41, and
Mizmizzy!! I've added you to the list! So glad to have you! Good luck!!
Ladyfyre, yes, sometimes we have to learn the hard way that we really do need a strong support system, and that's what we have here at 3FC! I think you're going to like this thread! We'll help you along! And with your birthday coming up, this is a great time to get started!!
Sheena, I really like that you chose a realistic weight loss goal! Our bodies are all different, we lose at different rates, and have different amounts to lose, and self-awareness about that is vitally important! Too often people set the bar of expectation too high for themselves and when they can't keep up, they become discouraged and embarrassed and even sometimes disappear, even though we've all been through it and understand and definitely don't want them to go!! So I think it's very smart that you have set your June goal according to what you know you can do! And the good part is that if you meet your goal early, you can always set another one!!
Lene, it's about time you got here!!
Delphi, you are welcome! I am happy to do it!
Everyone, Lene brings up such a good point! The more you check in and post, the more accountable you will hold yourself! Just try it!

You don't have to write personals. We love it when you do, but some people just don't have time for that, not to mention that this thread moves so fast sometimes that it's hard to keep up, lol! Although some of us post daily and even multiple times a day, if you will just check in and post regularly, and let us know how it's going for you, good or bad, we will be happy to support you, and it will make all the difference! You'll see! We want everyone to succeed, and if you are struggling, not only might we be able to help you, but you might be helping us because the same struggle may be just around our corners. So just remember, we want you here!

Good luck!!
