Wink New here... Here's my Intro.
Hey all! I'm new and ready to lose weight! I hope you follow my blog... The link is in my profile.

But here's my introduction....

Hey all My name is Meagan but you can call me Skittles. So as of today (August 12, 2010) I weigh 304 lbs. My goal is to lose at least 10 lbs. a month (a little over 2 lbs. a week) until I reach a weight of between 135 and 150. I know I have a long way to go but I also know I can get there with support. I am hoping that’s where you guys come in.

I am 21 years old and married to the most wonderful man on earth; Jason. He supports me with everything I do and although hes not overweight, he plans on doing everything I do to show his support.

I also have a daughter; Jalyn, who is 19 months old. She is the main reason I am jump starting my weight loss. I want to have enough energy to play with her, be able to ride the rides at the fair with her, and set a good example for her.

I have 7 cats and 2 dogs. LOL don’t freak, my family and I take in strays and nurse them, but sometimes, we cant let them go.

I love to sing, dance, swim, read, blog, and many more things that might bore you haha.

Well that is my introduction but I will posting more (ALOT MORE) as I go about this long journey to lose weight and I hope you all will follow me.

—— Skittles

Hey Skittles!

Welcome to 3FC! You've come to a wonderful place to find help, and support. The women, and men on this forum are so supportive, and wonderful.

I started out around 300 lbs, and I have some of the same reasons for losing weight as you do. Other than just being healthy in general, and feeling good about myself, I too want to (When I get married to my boyfriend, and have kids) to be able to do activities with them, and live a long, healthy, and happy life.

So, welcome, we're all here for a good reason. You can do this!! We can do this.

I'm here if you need a jolt of support, and I know the other ladies and gents here will do the same.

Good luck!

I just joined tonight, too! Welcome to this site =) What are you planning to do to lose your weight? I'm on weight watchers, but I'm really struggling when it comes to working out and balancing my points.

Well im on a simple diet, which i will describe in detail in my blog (link found in my profile) and as for exercising, im taking it slow. Im so overweight that walking a few mins takes my breath away. So for now, i walk on my treadmill 5 mins; 3 times day.
