Hi, new here

  • Hi all,

    I'm new here. Well, sort of. When I went to register this morning, I discovered that I already had - like two and a half years ago! I don't think I ever posted anything then, though, so here is my official intro!

    I'm Kristy, 37, live in Oklahoma City. I've struggled with my weight all my life. In 1997 I actually got fairly close to my goal weight, then got very ill, and was on high doses of Prednisone for 6 months, and gained over 100 pounds back. I've never managed to stick with anything long enough to lose more than 30 of it before I've given up and it creeps back on.

    A couple of weeks ago, I dusted off the scale, stepped on, and saw that I weighed the most I ever have in my life. Well, that was just not ok with me. A friend at work had been asking me to join Weight Watchers with her, so I did. I've lost 10 pounds in the last two weeks.

    I'm a message board addict, so I did some looking around for a good weight loss oriented one, and found you guys...again. So nice to finally meet ya!
  • Hey and nice to meet you - this is a great board for us board junkies because there are so many different places to post, things to talk about and people to meet!
  • Welcome back, Kristy!
    Congratulations on the good start. We've got a WW forum here, too. http://www.3fatchicks.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=18
    Please post wherever you feel comfortable.
  • Hi Kristy! Welcome to 3FC! I joined back in 2002 and used the site religiously for over a year and then somehow got out of the habit. I then (after gaining back 20+ of the 50+ I had lost) returned in 2006 or so. Well, guess what...I slacked off AGAIN but here I am back! This site is the best for support, motivation and inspiration. I just started a new thread in the Support Groups under Misc Clubs called ..."We're BACK, now let's get on TRACK!" You are welcome to join us if you'd like. Just drop in and post.
