3 Fat Chicks on a Diet Weight Loss Community

Hi everyone!

I'm 27 years old and live in Colorado. I've been married for almost 7 years and have an almost 6 year old son. I enjoy reading, crafty stuff of all kinds, and gardening. I have degrees in English and Marketing. I'm shy and have a dark sense of humor. I dislike cleaning, camping, and not having anything to do.

I've been struggling with my weight for about 8 years, ever since I stopped waitressing and started working office jobs. I adopted my skinny husband's terrible eating habits at the same time. I went from 120 to 200+ in three years, and while I've been able to lose pretty large amounts of weight, it always piles back on much faster than I can lose it. I'm hovering at 204 now, at five foot two. It's discouraging. Obesity is a big problem in my family, and so are ALL the fat-related illnesses. I'm basically a ticking time bomb.

This time around, I'm going to try a much more structured approach. I'm hoping to meet some new friends on here-- we can cheer each other on and hold each other accountable! :carrot: for new beginnings!
