Here I go again....
 

Hey everyone, I'm back again. WOW...again..this time is for real and I have to do what I said I'm going to do. If I don't I will see an early grave. I am 24 weight 224 height 5'2. You name it, it runs in the family on both sides. Should be enough to scare me right? No. I have never weighed this much and I don't want to weigh this much either. I started feeling the effects of this weight gain really started feeling it last week, getting heartburn from H**L, not be able to breathe, can't walk up the steps to my apartment without running out of air. SO i have decided that either I do something about the weight or i meet an early grave with this weight still on. It sounds harsh what i am saying but it is the truth and sometimes the truth scares us and/or it hurts in my case i have been scared by the truth. So, Here I go again...on my own...no not on my own I know that there is support on here and my Husband is joining me with this journey again.:hug: Oh, by the way my name is CRYSTAL!!

Welcome to 3FC and good luck with your goals.

Hugs

:welcome:

You CAN do this! Pick a plan, stick with it, and keep coming here for support, encouragement, and accountability!

I can't wait to read of your progress :)

:wel3fc: Hi Crystal!
It sounds like you're ready to start - YOU CAN DO THIS - good luck with your goals!

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! :df:

Hello and welcome! You have received some great advice above, all of which I agree with.

I wish you the best on your weight loss journey!

Cheers,

J

Thank you all for the kind words and encouragement I hope that I can help yall the same way you have begun to help me!
Crystal
