Hi Everyone!
 

Hello, it's another newbie! I have been lurking around the forum for a few weeks and decided it was time to join already! :) I can't believe I let myself get like this...I have a lot of weight to lose. I'm 24 and my self esteem is gone...I'm too embarrassed to go out in public, so it's time for a change! I was looking into wls but decided I want to lose it the old fashioned way. I look forward getting to know everyone!

Hi!! I'm Ashley! I just started today too =) The forum seems like a good place to be =)

Welcome to 3FC! We are all right where you are (or have been) so we all truly understand how you are feeling. So take things slow and easy so as to not overwhelm yourself and give up. do you have an action plan yet? If you need any help or advice be sure to post. The people here are a Godsend and are more helpful than any doc or nutritionist I have been to. Good luck! Make sure to stick around and keep posting.

:wel3fc: glad to hear you're doing it the old fashioned way! alot less risks that way! Best of luck :D

Thanks so much everyone!

Hi girls,

I just joined a week or so ago and i'm totally addicted. I really feel like i can be myself here and discuss all my problems with food and weight in a very real way. I find myself admitting things here, i would never admit anywhere else. Every time i think of getting out of control i run here for guidance.

The support is wonderful. I hope you find it just as comfortable.

:wel3fc: billies pottery,I think you are the one who's commented my blog a few times. Im so glad I found you :), if not, welcome anyway, lol
hope to hear more from you, and good luck in your weight loss journey:hug:

Welcome ladies, I too just joined this week. So far, I have received a lot of positive advice. Just reading the success stories alone has been a plus for me. All us newbies can be there for each other. I'll be watching your successes.
