Default Ahoy!

Hey everyone. My name is Lillia. My sister got me to join this site.

I used to be thin, but then I started taking medication and total it has caused me to gain 130 lbs.

I would like to lose 100 lbs, but I'm not sure how to go about doing it. Diet and exercise, yes! But not sure where to start.

Hey! Welcome to the site! Have a look over at the different forums and different plans and choose which one would work best for you or just implement your own!

Good luck

Welcome to 3FC =)

The start is always the most daunting. So many things to think about, and it seems a little overwhelming.

Start at the beginning. 1 Step at a time. You don't need to change everything in a day.

For example... what do you tend to drink when you're thirsty? Sodas or other high calorie drinks? You could always choose for a week to focus on getting in more water.

How many fruits and vegetables do you eat in a day? At least 5 servings with most of them being vegetables? If not, try adding more in one meal at a time.

Do you know how many calories you're taking in on a normal day/week? Try counting up all the calories that you're eating -- not even changing anything (yet), but counting them up to see just how many you're consuming normally.

From any of those points you can start. You can begin to see a couple patterns, and you can get a better idea of what you'll need to change.

We'd love to help and support you along the way.

Hope to see you around the boards!
