Hello!

Hey guys!! I'm another newbie looking to lose some weight! I'm 23 yrs old and currently weigh 205 lbs, well over what is considered healthy for my height and age. I have tried dieting several times and have failed. Not because I can't do it, but because I lose my motivation. It's hard trying to stick to diet and exercise when you do it all alone. I love food and I think that any diet is super difficult to stick to if you are deprived of all the foods that you love. I'm hoping that I will be able to still lose weight while eating what I want and just watching my portions, and of course exercising. I could definitely use a little help and I'm glad that I came across this site!! You guys seem very helpful and polite!! Well wish me luck!!! I'm starting tomorrow!!!!:)

Leticia, welcome to 3FC! :wave:
Good for you for getting the weight off while you're still young. Stick to it, and you won't have the endless struggle that some of us have had. ;)
What are your plans for diet and exercise?

Hi Leticia:wave:
This is a great place for support & advice. I am not here to tell you losing weight is easy. It takes determination, dedication & motivation. For me, being 245 lbs, having diabetes & heart problems in my family, not being able to walk a half a block without being out of breath...gave me the determination. The dedication & the motivation came when I saw results. Always keep 1 very important thing in mind, YOU are worth it!!!:) You CAN do this!!

All the best to you!

You two have chosen a great site for support and information. I've found that it is hard to lose the weight and stay motivated by yourself. Since I've joined this site I have the motivation and support that I need. There are a lot of wonderful people here. It is a very warm place to be.

Wishing You The Best

Hey girls!

Welcome welcome!
Nice to be surrounded by gals that have the same goals! I set a short term goal of 170, just so that I don't get too frustrated. :) I am getting married in less than 5 months and have found that really lit a fire under me. Drop me a note anytime, I can be a great listener!
