Hi everyone, I'm new
 

Hello everyone,

I found this site as I'm looking for some motivation to stop myself pigging out. I'm not seriously overweight, but I go through phases of eating very badly and feeling dreadful because of it. Hoping to get the motivation here to control that!
I'm looking forward to contributing :)

Good morning! I'm new to the site as well. I found it last night, while I was surfing around looking for diet tips. Exercise isn't a problem, it's the eating part. I always seem to be stuffing my face until I can't move! Good luck on your end!!

Thanks Jen,

I put away an entire box of Carr's Cheese Melts last night and am now suffering for it!

Good luck to you too!

Hi! I'm new, too. I ate 1/2 jar of almonds last night.....they're only healthy in small portions! I couldn't stop myself!
Good Luck! We can do this!

I'm trying to get my signature block and ticker to work... don't mind me

Welcome everyone! :wel3fc: I found this group around 3 weeks ago and am thankful I did. Need advice? There are some very successful dieters here. Need help? We'll listen. Have success? We'll cheer you on. :cheer:
Two wonderful sites you might want to check out are fitday.com and calorie-count.com to help with food choices. Fitday gets the credit for my 8 pounds lost to date-it is so eyeopening to log in the foods you eat or plan to eat and find out the contents/calories/etc.
Anyway, jump in and join us. I am sure you'll be glad you did.
:hug:

Hello! I'm sorry to sound like a baby, but would somebody please welcome me? Trying to navigate this site is like being in a hall of mirrors. I want to jump in, but whenever I try to search something, it tells me I've entered too many words. ("Let's get back to sexy" was where I was, but I can't even find it again!) I don't understand about subscriptions, I'm unsure of the difference between threads and forums--and can't find either, in any event. HELP!!! -- Many thanks, ladies (& gentlemen)

Virgo, here's a link back to the thread http://www.3fatchicks.com/forum/show...51#post1622751

If you find a thread or group you like to frequent, you can "subscribe" to it and have email notifications of posts sent to you--complete with a link back to it. Yes, it can be confusing getting around on these boards but once you sit and browse for a while, you get the hang of it.

You can also click on your own user name, and find all the places where you've posted previously. That's a helpful way to get back to where you want to be.

Welcome to all the newbies and hope you find your niche here at 3FC. There are so many different threads, those that deal with specific diet plans, or people who have a great deal to lose or even those with just those last stubborn 10 lbs. Look around. There are lot's of wonderful people and GREAT advice from people who have been there and done that in regards to weight loss and maintenance. Welcome and enjoy!

Welcome, FatToFitVirgo!! This is a great site with lots of support! Sorry you're having a hard time navigating the site.

You just posted on a thread. Forums are usually organized by topic, and there are a number of threads on each forum.

It's helpful to find others in situations like yours. For instance, I'm a calorie counter, so I post there (under General Diet Plans). I also started off with a lot of weight to lose (at 295), so I started posting under 2 Support Groups: 300+ and ready to try again and the 100 pound club.

If you click the link that says 3 Fat Chicks on a Diet Weight Loss Community you'll go to the main forum page: http://www.3fatchicks.com/forum/
where you can find a list of all the different forums.

Good luck!
