Well, I joined here last week, but have yet to introduce myself. My name is Kristi and I live in a state of organized chaos, thus my user name. I have a long journey in front of me, but if I don't make a change in my life now, in 10 years I will be wondering why. I am a WOHM with 3 beautiful kids, ages 10, 7, and 3. My DH is very supportive and has always told me he loves me no matter what size I am, but I know he worries about me. I have been doing this on my own for a little over a week, but I am looking into joining WW as it really does me good to have those weekly in face meetings. I watch The Biggest Loser and find it a huge motivation for me.

I lead a busy life, so I may not post often, but I do read when I can fit it in.

Thanks for welcoming me!

Welcome to 3FC. You have a supportive hubby and now the 3FC. That sounds like a fAbUlOuS start to your journey. You CAN absolutely do this. There is no part of your struggle and journey that cannot be discussed and identified with here. I am not a WW but believe and employ many of their principles. Congrats on figuring out a plan and beginning your journey to the health you want.

Welcome to 3FC and good luck with your goals.

Hugs
Michelle

Welcome, glad you joined!

Hi Kristi!
It sounds like you're off to a good start and have a great plan for meeting your goal!

Glad to have you join us! There are lots & lots of different groups and forums - I'm sure you'll find some that will keep you motivated, inspired and entertained!

There are bunches of people here with more to lose and some with less - the bottom line is that we all have to do it a day at a time. The good thing is that we'll have lots of company along the way.

I've only been here a short time myself, having NEVER been part of an online forum. What has been so eye-opening is how much it has helped me. Whenever I feel overwhelmed or defeated, I just log on and read some of the success stories, complete with their before & after photos - or read about others still dealing day to day with their challenges - and before I know it, the time has flown by and so have all the thoughts of cheating or giving up.

So welcome - you 've found the right place - join in by inspiring us and being inspired!
