Hello all,
I think I have finally found inside myself the strength to change and get healthy. It will be a long road ahead of me, but I am excited about the process of becoming the healthy person I want to be. I cant wait to get started!! I have about 150 pounds to lose so I will just take that as 10 pounds -15 times. Piece of cake :P

Welcome to 3FC! I know what it's like to need to lose a lot of weight, but it's really doable once you set your mind to it and take control. Post often so we get to know you!
Hi B!
Sounds like you're ready to get started with determination and a can-do attitude - the support you need is here - we'll be here to see you through!
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!
I've been here just 3 weeks and I can't tell you how much support I've had. I felt such a failure but everyone here has picked me up and set me on the road to a new me. If it's any help, I'm taking mine 10lbs at a time, that way I won't get downhearted when the ticker just crawls along. I shall be here for many months, probably for ever to keep me motivated. We can do this!!
