Introducing Me!
 

Tonight I googled "weight loss support" and ended up at 3fatchicks.com. I want to lose weight...need to lose weight...and was seeking out support in doing so.

I'm currently a SAHM with 2 girls, ages 2 and 3 months old. After the birth of my first daughter, I swore I would lose weight. That lasted 2 months. I got pregnant again when she was a year old. And here I am with baby #2 saying to myself that now is the time....I need to lose weight.

My goal is to lose 5 lbs. by next Friday (20th). Baby steps, folks, baby steps.

Baby steps are good! Just wanted to say welcome to you! We are the same height and our start weights were very similar, though I had about 14 pounds more than you. It can be done and you will feel so much better!

Wow, congrats on your 119 lb. weight loss!!! Way to go!

Welcome! I am glad you are joining us!

Cheers,

:wel3fc: Hi jenjem!
Sound like you must have your hands full with those 2 precious little ones - hey, I'm trying to get rid of baby fat too, but mine is from when I was a baby (really!) - 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. Try the 100 lb Club, the 300+ club and the weight loss support forums, they're active and very helpful - also the Success stories are a definite must for motivation.

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 since last fall, 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
