  • Hello everyone,
    I'm new on here. In 2008 I had my first child and have not been able to lose the weight since. I'm currently 211 and my goal is to get to 150/125. I would like to know if anybody close to my weight or not and really serious and determined to lose weight, would like to be a weight loss buddy to me so we can lose weight together. It's very hard to go at it alone so I really need a partner so we can motivate each other. Since a lot of people on here have already lost a ton of weight I feel out of place because I'm new. Please let me know if you are interested. I would like to start today/tomorrow.
  • Welcome to 3FC =)

    You're not alone. New people, or people who've been here a while... we all have the same goals. Healthier.

    Have you had a chance to look around? There are a number of support groups where you'll feel quite welcome! There are age-based groups, under Diet Central there are sections devoted to different types of plans, there are areas for those looking to lose specific amounts of weight, there's a challenge area if you need a boost.

    We don't bite! We want very much to encourage and support every member who needs a hand, and to push those who need a kick in the bum along the way.

    Don't be shy about posting wherever and whenever you feel comfortable!

    Best of wishes and I hope to see you around the boards!
  • you will luv it here; there are lots of folks here that will be able to support you on your new journey of good health ...
  • Thank you both! I really appreciate your encouraging words.
  • Good luck with your efforts!! YOU can do it!!!
