32 New-Blue-and way to fluffy!!!
 

:dizzy:Hi there!

Ok so here we go! I am 32, been laid off for almost 2 months, pretty sure i have a touch of depression as i can sleep for days and not care until i actually wake up and realize the time i have wasted! GRRRR.....Or maybe i am just naturaly lazy!

Anyway....tomorrow is the day...I want a jump on the New year resolution thing...so....I am right about 213....and all year have gone from 197-215..fun times....Not! I am dieing to actually wear the wonderful selection of clothes i have in my closets...but oh no.....i cant right now..as usual....

Its time for a change....I have decided i can not control what is going on around me...but....the one thing i can control is me so lets get to it!

Any helpful tips, sites etc would be great....not sure what i am going to do this time....weight watchers has been my most success...but to broke for that so i am going at it alone...and with you all of course!!!!

I tend to do well for a week or 2 and then bam.....done! I also do the same with working out....do well....like a power house and then nothing.....its all or nothing with me and once i get off track its nothing....

So theres a bit about me.....anyone else just starting?

I am hoping to loose 14 by New Years....that would be nice!

Hey Tish, I have starting low-carb. I had a lot of success with it in the past but I went back to my old ways and gained back.. I seem to feel best on it. Everybody is different. There is a weight watchers forum here if you want to do WW. There are forums here for just about every diet plan....you just have to do what is best for you.

There is also a Biggest Loser forum starting up for spring if you are interested in joining there. Best of luck to you! :)

Welcome to 3FC!!! The secret to my success this time was to realize that I couldn't be perfect and just get right back on plan when I eat something that is not healthy or when I don't exercise. It's what I do MOST of the time that counts. So, kick that all or nothing mentality to the curb. :cheer: Good luck! I'm glad you're here!

:wel3fc: Hi Tish!
Sounds like you're ready to go with a can-do attitude - the support you need is here - you can do this and we'll all be here to cheer you on!

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's also info and first hand advice on different eating plans and exercise to help choose the right one for you and get through the ups and downs.

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 few months 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:

All the best - good luck with your goals,
Lee
