Hi, another newbie!

  • I stumbled upon this site yesterday while googling, and I am glad I did. This looks like a really great place for weight loss support! I belong to another board but it's just wayyyy to big and busy for me,I get so lost and I never know whether I am coming or going...this place looks nice and cozy

    Currently I am restarting Atkins Induction, and just got on board with Wii Fit yesterday, so I am excited for the challenges ahead of me!


    I look fwd to getting to know everyone!

    xoxo, Jackie
  • I am new too. I found this forum through a google random search. I think it will be a great resource for support!
  • Welcome to 3FC! Surf around and settle in! We have forums based on age range, eating plan, exercise and more. We have a nice Atkins forum and lots of threads on the Wii in Exercise.
  • I guess I'll hitch my intro to this one, since I too found this by googling weight loss communities. Hi!

    Losing the weight, getting into fitness again and just becoming all-around healthier is a big part of my life right now -- and so it's something I want to talk to multiple others about. I'm a private person in real life; my (supportive) spouse is the only one with whom I've been sharing this.

    I was an anorexic/bulimic high schooler, a healthier/fit college student and then an increasingly overweight professional and wife. It was partly due to depression brought on by loss ~4 years ago. In fall 06 and fall 07 I started "diets" that lasted 2-3 months. But in 08 I dedicated myself and I'm going stronger than ever. Two weeks ago I added daily workouts (floor and exercise bike) to keep my rate of weight loss going. It's also about health to me -- my dentist is pleased that my 2-3 diet sodas a day have gone down to 1 per week.

    Well, I'm starting to talk all about myself. I filled in my stats and am off to check out the specific forums mentioned.
  • Hey to all of you! Good luck with everything!
