:wel3fc: Hi Sister!
There's lots of big mamas here - I'm sure yours is too - how smart to focus on health and not just a diet or a number - 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. Try the 40 somethings and the weight loss support forums, they're active and very helpful - also the Success stories are a definite must for motivation. Maybe check out the Dieting with Obstacles forum to meet others dealing with the challenges of diabetes and other health issues.

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 - glad you took your sister's advice,
Lee

Hi! You are the same height and age as my sister...I wish you were her. I've told her about 3fc for over a year, but she never joins. :(

Anyway, welcome to the group. Weight loss will help you with all your health problems, (as I'm sure your Doctor has preached to you...lol)

What's your plan? How much would you like to lose?
