Smile Down by 17 pounds so far :)

Hi,

I'm a 31 year old male from India & new to this forum. My journey of weight loss started around 55 days back when I was desperate to lose weight but still not getting the right direction. Then I found 3FC and I got the right platform to start my weightloss journey. In last 2 Months I may have not posted much but everyday I come to 3FC to read the posts of all members and it helped me to change my mindset so drastically that I'd been able to carry on and reach this level. Today I weigh 211 Pounds down from 228 Pounds which is exactly 17 pounds less that what I used to be, I'm still working hard to reach my target of 156 pounds & this time I'm convinced that I'll achieve it.

Its great to be here, the community help is amazing and members are so friendly that it I feel at home. Kudos to the management of 3FC's who run this wonderful community and still manage to keep it free.

I've learnt a lot here, till two months back I always wanted to lose weight but now I want to lead a fit & healthy life which not only involves weight loss but also change in my over all lifestyle and a regular exercise schedule. Today I walk 4 miles everyday, go to Gym, even do Yoga on alternate days, walk when possible rather than taking my car, do a lot of housecleaning when possible, do everything that I never did..and Yes I'm loving it.

I know I still have a long long way to go & I'm sure I'll reach my goals this time, coz its now not a quest to reach the destination rather a journey which I enjoy traveling everyday
