Smile Hello :)

Hi, fellow weight loss enthusiasts My name is Ellie. I live in SC. I turn 30 in a few weeks, and currently weigh 310. My first mini-goal is 275.

My sister-in-law is getting married soon, so I have fallen into what a lot of people do: major event = push to lose weight. I don't want it to end there, and I think as long as I stick with it and get some support I'll be better equipped to do it. Which is why I've joined this forum

My husband is type 2 diabetic, and we've changed the way we eat most of our meals. I still carry too much weight. It seems like every time I've started to lose weight in the past few years, I fall or injure myself. Which makes it that much harder to get up and move. Enough with the reasons why, however, that's pretty much the situation. Onward and upward, or should I say downward?

I hope to bring my sense of humor and my big heart to this forum, and I hope to make a lot of connections and friendships. Thanks for reading and see you around!

Welcome to 3FC =)

I began my journey (this time) before I heard about it -- but my brother is getting married next year and it was just one more reason to take off some extra weight, so I definitely understand that push.

You might appreciate the 300+ Club, the 100 lb Club, the 30-something's area, and so many more.

You can do this! We'd love to help support you on your way
