Hello, Just Joined And Sort Of Confused

  • Just Wanted To Say Hi. This Is My First Post. I Am A Pro At Myspace. But This Is Foreign To Me. I Just Need Some Help With My Profile And How To Get Friends And Stuff. I Started My Healthy Lifestyle Change This April. So Far I've Lost About 60lbs. I Have 100 More To Go Until My Goal Of 140lbs. I Think This Site Is Very Motivating. Ive Already Looked At The Before And After Pics. They Are Awesome! I Cant Wait To Be An "after"
    Any Help With This Site Would Be Greatly Appreciated. Thank You
  • Not much help with the site, being a newbie here myself but I just wanted to say HI!! Congrats on the 60lbs that is awesome!!! Welcome to the board!!
  • Oldie but Newbie
    Hi Ladies,

    I joined a while ago and fell off of the site. I could never find where to find people consistently and didn't want to barge in on anyone else's thread. If you two are thinking of staying on, I would love to chat and do support with someone again.

    I am thinking of starting WW again as I have tried numerous things and not stuck with anything. I am at my highest weight ever and want to get back under control.

    Lolla

    Good Morning!

    It is rainy and cold in Colorado today, but may still try and get off the GB hiney (that would be great big hiney) and walk the dog for a bit. I went back to dark brunette last night from brassy light brown. Great color, used to be my natural color...not sure what that is anymore...lol. I feel like it makes me look older though as it is so dark right now. So dealing with rain, fat and old today. I guess it is time for a change all the way around, hair, diet, attitude. So far, hair is the only change. Doh.

    Well, I hope this finds you two well, I am researching my diet options today. Atkins or WW. Can't decide. I do better on WW but it is slow and steady where with Atkins you get a jump to begin with. My Dad has lost 40 pounds on Atkins, but I struggle with so much meat and eggs.

    Anyway, drop a thread when you have time and tell me what has worked for you two. I am 42, Married, 3 children, 1 out of college, 1 in college and 1 is a sophmore in high school. As my ticker shows 183 and holding. I am 5'6 1/2 so I need to lose about 40 lbs from about neck to belly button.

    Take care and have a good rest of the weekend.

    Lolla
  • Welcome to 3FC, HVEECK!
    I'm so glad you find the site motivating.

    Ladies, I'm not trying to kick you out, but I'm going to suggest that you start a thread in another section. ie:
    General Chatter: http://www.3fatchicks.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=72
    Support Groups: http://www.3fatchicks.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=122
    etc.
    It's only that we try to keep the chat down in this section so that we can focus on new members.

    If you need help starting a thread or finding something/someone, please ask. We're so glad to have you all here.
