I've lurked in the 3FC forums off and on for a few years. I'm pretty shy when I first meet people (yes, even people in forums ^^), but I've always noticed the supportive, friendly nature of the members here, and it's inspired me to get introduce myself and get involved.

I'm 29 (coming up on the big 3-0 *gasp*), and I'm tired of feeling like I've already outlived my body. 80+lbs to lose and a whoooole lot of self-confidence to restore. That's me in a nutshell. :o

Looking forward to meeting everyone!

Howdy Star! It is so awesome you decided to post! Everyone is so helpful and supportive. LOL no gasp on 30. 30's are awesome. Your going to live your 30's feel awesome, fit and fabulous. Congrats on getting started!

I'm so glad you came out of lurkdom! This really is the nicest group of people you are going to find. Welcome and good luck to you!

:wel3fc: Hi starsign!
Many of us lurk before joining - glad you signed up - the support you need is here - 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 and inspired - you'll be a wonderful addition to any of them. 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 going off track or giving up. It has made all the difference in my success so far.

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
