Hello, my name is Gabrielle, but most people call me Gabby. I just turned 18, and have been struggling with weight my entire life.

I really have no idea as to what to expect. I have 120 pounds to lose, and I really hope being a part of a community like this will help me on the way, since going it alone or having a couple people going along with me has left me wanting.

Hopefully this is a start to something great .

Hey Gabby!

Welcome! You should join the October challenge for some support! http://www.3fatchicks.com/forum/chic...challenge.html

Hey Gabby, it's nice to meet you.

My name is Hayley, and I'm nineteen - so I'm excited to meet someone close in age with me. I'm close to your weight and height, as well - kinda weird, huh? Well, not really, I suppose. lol

This is a GREAT, amazing, wonderful decision you've made. It's difficult, a real struggle, but if you have a support system you cannot fail. I truly believe that having people around you with the same dilemma helps a ton. And I've found a lot of support here already, as a new member myself!

Just remember to never give up, so matter how hard it seems or even if you make a little mistake. The end result will be SO worth it - I can't wait! Haha

Hey! I'm 17..nice to see someone teenage-y on here!!!

You're going to have so much fun losing weight. It might not be fun in the midst, but when you wake up one day down a new jean size, whew, BEST. DAY. EVER!!! hahaha good luck!

Hi Gabrielle and welcome to 3FC.

Good luck with your goals

Hugs
Michelle
