Blue.. You'll get the hang of Facebook... It's a lot of fun and there are lots of little distractions.. But please, everyone, don't send me any fish or plants! FB'ers know what I mean by that!
Oh, hysterical!!!! People keep sending me this crap and I ignore it all! I barely have time to check out everyone's status and such - how do they find the time to do the fish/elves/plants/christmas ornament thing????
No worries Dan - the only thing I will send are words. Funny ones, encouraging ones, etc....
I am not sure we can really use "3 fat chicks" isn't that some kind of infringement..... what say you Lawyer Amy?
Also, I would like us to have our own identity. 3 fat chicks is great and has been good to us for a long time, but if we want that we can come here. this will be something new..
Keep me posted on the name of the group - I occasionally get on FB, I'm really new at it. Perhaps "3FC and 1 dude" - but we may have to add the "fat" in the dude part also - no offense Dan, but if we gotta be called fat, so do you!
Names? K..... how about "2009 - 20 at a time" or "Dejavu" (like we all haven't been on a diet forever, lol) or "No Excuses" .........or hehe... "Mixed Nuts" lol! Heck, I'm suggesting but I don't even know what kind of names they have....... so, feel free to ignore me, lol!
Allright, I got a battery in my scale and weighed. First it said 229, then I tried again to be sure and it said 232, so I had my daughter weigh to make sure it was calibrated, and my weight jumped to 237, over and over and over again. So, dammit, I am taking 237 as my start weight. I am going to count calories and get in a ton of water every day and see how we do.
HMMMPH! I think I'd take that battery out and try it again, lol! Those weights sound like my DH taking his blood sugar in the mornings...... it's never the same and you don't know what to believe!
ok, here is a whole other thought on the idea, weight loss is about more than calories, water and exercise. it is affected by everything in our lives. our relationships, our mood, our finances, where we live, what we do, what the weather is.... on and on and on..... LAWL- 3fatchicks.... is here to focus on mostly one component, LAWL plan. and we do a great job of keeping that alive even if the company stank at it! but I would like to propose that a FB group would encompass more than that. we would get to know each other a little deeper, seeing pictures and sharing more personal things. .. and that would help us incorporate weight loss into all facets of our lives, which in turn would, I think, make us more successful and our weight loss permanent. so, in saying that, I think we need to separate ourselves from 3fatchicks and LAWL. if we want to start something new, lets make it new..... heck we could be the next hot thing on the web!
I would love a name that is empowering and more positive. Yes Lettie, it looks like 3FC is a registered trademark, but I don't think anyone is going to come after us (but you never know). I'm drawing a blank on names but I agree it should be completely different!
I agree Lettie - I don't want to step on what Suzanne and Co. have done here at 3FC - because it has been great. I like the idea of being all-encompassing supportive to each other on FB.
Plus, I can't login to FB from work- boo hoo. So, I hope that everyone still checks in here!
