Hello to all. I'm Erin. 26, 5'3, 261 at my last weigh in. I've been working out sporadically for a month. I am here because I need support on days when I can come up with every excuse not to work out/eat well, and I want to share my empathetic ear with others.
The best predictor of the ability to cope is social support - so here I am.

Welcome Erin!

The nice thing about online support is that it's here 24/7. We don't need the doors to open or someone to call us back. Any time we need a boost, we can just come here and read.

I'm glad you've come to us and jumped right in. Don't be a stranger! We're here to help you.

I can honestly say, I don't think I could have survived this journey without 3FC. The support here is - as Susan said - 24/7 and the folk here are GREAT! They are encouraging and wise.

Come back often - it really DOES help you stay on plan!

Welcome to the forum, Erin!

Yes, please keep posting! There's great support to be had here, and you can make some wonderful friends.

I weigh in on Tuesdays at Weight Watchers and seem to do really well on Wed, Thur, Fri...then as the week goes on the support and reinforcement I get from my group seems to dim. Then I found this site!! Yippee! We can all get our support and motivation 24/7.

I hope you find this site as helpful as I have.
