Hi everyone from the snowy tundra of the Midwest! I've been reading some of the threads on 3FC over the past week and have decided that now is the best time to begin my weight loss journey! I have been noticing lately that I just can't keep up with my keeps as well at school and was surprised by how high my weight had gotten when I finally stepped on the scale. I've tried to lose in the past, but just haven't been able to keep it off. I'd appreciate any support or helpful tips you all have to offer!!

Hi Kristilinn!
Sounds like you're ready to get started - the support you need is here - 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's also info and first hand advice on different eating plans and exercise to help 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!

All the best,
Lee

Welcome Kristilinn! 3FC is a great place for support during your weight loss journey! I noticed that you posted on the GWF/Bodybugg thread the other day (I have a GWF). Has it been delivered yet? If yes, what do you think so far? Let me know if I can help you get started with it!

Hey Kristilinn!

Welcome to 3FC! I was a member here a long while ago, and have recently joined once again. It's really a great place for support and accountability. I believe you can lose the weight and that you can do great. There's tons of support here... if you need anything just drop me a pm =)

Jen
