Wink The Lurking Fairy

Greetings Everyone!

I think it is about time to make a post here. I feel obliged after creeping on all your posts for the past threeandahalfish years. I feel like the magical 3fc fairy who takes everyone's pounds away...only to add them to my own body. This does not lead to a very pretty fairy, to say the least.

I'm 23 and have a lot to lose, well...weight wise. I have a lot to gain in a lot of other areas though, so that's good. I started my 3fc blog in hopes to gather more discipline in myself and so far is so good...I just hope I keep up with it. I have PCOS and insulin resistance, and thus far my attempts at true weight loss have been pretty unsuccessful. I'm adapting a lower carb lifestyle in hopes to combat my ever present belly rolls. I'm hopeful.

I've had some success so far (6 pounds, yahoo.) My first mini goal is to reach 265lbs again, which is 25 (now 19!) pounds away from where I started. I feel great so far, but mentally there is that block. The ever present screaming in my head that I will fail. But for now I'm ignoring that like overplayed radio music. I CAN do this, and will work my buns off till they fall off. I hope I can find some support and uplifting people in general here. Humorous too. I love me some good humor.

I'm excited to be here and not floating around, good luck everyone on your endeavors!

How could you restrain yourself from posting for three and a half years?! I managed to lurk for about two weeks before I succumbed. Anyway, congrats on your loss so far and good job for deciding to get it under control now (and you are taking control!) ... I'm old enough to be your mom and trust me, it doesn't get easier as you get older. You can do it!

Thank you everyone for all the welcomes and good wishes! This community is the best!

veggiedawg - Bahaha, cysters! I really do fancy that term. I hope to see you around!

ReNew Me - Haha it wasn't easy in some ways to not post for that long...I think mainly I was too scared. Scared of failure if I started posting and then couldn't do it. I've finally ramped up enough courage to admit I need support and change I suppose!

Welcome! I love the name. Pandas are one of my favorite animals. I went to the Atlanta zoo twice while they had the pandas from China there. You talk about humorous! They were so funny to watch. Congrats on the weight loss so far. You have the right mindset for success. If you visit here often, you will find the encouragement and motivation to be successful in meeting your weight loss goal. Best wishes to you,
