Hi there cool chix! I have been looking for a site that is free and supportive and has a sense of humor...so here I am!

I have never been obese, but I have never known thin, either. I'm 5'4 and have always been around 150lb. When my husband and I got married I had managed to get down to 135lb, but ended up gaining and reaching almost 160lb. I decided that I DID NOT want to keep buying bigger clothes. So, I joined WW last year. It has been a love/hate relationship, but I have come to the conclusion that I feel best when I stick with the plan and exercise. I struggle with accepting myself where I am now. I have this nutty self talk going on in my head...one day I will say that I love my body and I don't need to lose...another day I will wonder why I can't just reach my goal once and for all. Some times I hate the way women are portrayed on magazines and other days I want to look just like them. Stop the insanity!!!

I hope to find some cool friends here who can relate.

You're definitely not alone. I've had those very same thoughts (nutty self talk included) and my stats are pretty similar to yours. I've been on this site for close to a year now, and I have found so much support and advice here that I feel 3FC is a big reason why I've been able to be successful this time around. I wish you all the best and keep posting.

Congrats on your weight loss! That's awesome

Jblossom ...

3FC has been the reason I am successful, but I still need to lose the last 10-15#, I'd be glad with 10#...
