So happy to find this site

  • Hi There,

    I found this site and am thrilled. I am in my early 40's, happily married with one child. I have been riding the weight roller coaster for the past 15 yrs and I soooo want to get off this ride. I know that it can't be just a diet for me. Been there (lost 90lbs) done that (gained 100back).

    It has to be about health for me - emotionally, mentally, physically ... no more short cut diets for me. For this to work, I know it means taking my life back and putting me on the proverbial list.

    I'm feeling very overwhelmed and a little scared. I don't need another failure at this. So ... right now, I'm going to hang around and take it one step at a time.

    Thanks for being here
  • Hi and welcome to 3FC!

  • I so relate. I lost 75 lbs, and gained 85 back about 12 years ago. You absolutely CAN make your experience different this time.

    3FC is a GREAT resource for your journey. I never would have been able to maintain my loss this time without the maintainers here showing me the way!
  • I have also been on the boat down the river and back up again, I also plan to paddle hard against the currrent to reach my goal. Welcome.
  • I love your attitude! That's exactly what it takes to be successful! You're off to a great start!

    Welcome!
