Intro, new girl!
 

Hello, everyone!
My name is Puja, and I have been lurking here for awhile but I have decided to join. I have been struggling with some extra weight all my life, and I am finally ready to make the commitment towards it.

When I was younger, I weighed around 200 lbs and then I quit drinking pop. I lost about 20 lbs and have stayed around there since. I've gotten down to 150 before but that was done unhealthily (starving myself, etc). I have/had body issues but I'm thankfully beyond the immature step of not eating, and am now eating healthily to foster weight loss.

Hopefully I can do it! I'm currently around 175lbs, and I want to get down to 150-145 lbs. I'm a bigger boned sort of person, so I don't know how I'll look beyond 145 but I'll cross that bridge when it comes. Here are some pics of me!

There is a picture of me in my profile. *cringe*

Nice to meet you all!

Hi Puja and welcome to 3FC!

You are very pretty!

You've come to a great place for support, encouragement, advice and tips.

Good luck with your goals.

Welcome Oohpujie,
Welcome to 3FC. You have come to the right place for support and motivation.
:wel3fc:

Welcome Aboard!!!

Welcome! Glad you joined us :)

Welcome, Puja, I don't think your picture is 'cringeworthy' I think you look very nice in both of them.

What you have in your favor is that you like to cook, so you can make your own healthy meals! Check out the recipe forums/collections. I've been spending a lot of time there and trying all sorts of things.

Glad you're here and good luck!! :)

Welcome, Puja! I am relatively new myself. You will love the support and motivation you get here.

Cheers,

J

Thank you for the warm welcome, girls, and for the nice compliments :D
