Hi all! - 3 Fat Chicks on a Diet Weight Loss Community

Well here it goes... I am new, i just joined yesterday. I am really excited, i have just bought my gym membership this week and started working out on Monday. I am really glad that i have found this website and i am hoping that being a member here will help me to reach my goal. I really want to succeed this time.

I got on the treadmill on Tuesday and there just so happens to be a mirror behind the machine. i caught a glimpse of the big huge black thing jiggling around,and then i realized, that it was in fact, my big butt.
I have not weighed myself for a very long time. Imagine my surprise when i mustered up the courage to get on the scale today and it hit 246 lbs... i wanted to pick it up and throw it out the gym window. I was convinced it was lying and that someone had rigged it. But we all know the truth... it's not rigged.

So here i am, this time is going to be different. i can't ever let this happen to me again. I will eat healthy and try and exercise everyday...and hopefully with the support of others who really get it, because the have been there, i will do it!
Thanx for listening!

You and I sound so similar to eachother. Just like you, I got on a scale and was convinced hat it was wrong. Well, after having to buy new pants because my "dryer shrunk them" I realized that I was only kidding myself. I was sick of being overweight, and the idea that I had gotten to 245 made me feel sick inside. I now want to take control of my life and have already lost 10 pounds by doing so. Good luck to you and let me know how it goes!

OMG you sound just like me! I joined Bally's when I was in California and they had mirrors everywhere too. I just looked at everyone else and refused to look at myself cause I knew it would totally mess with my determination and optimism.

lol those stupid dryers! Mine did that all the time too! Of course, now that I need smaller clothes, it stopped shrinking them
