Smile First mini-goal reached! 28 pounds lost!
I am finally in the 270's! It feels a **** of a lot better than being in the 300's....

I started out on this site in March weighing 307 lbs. Back then, when I signed up, I honestly thought there was no way I was ever going to get this far. I've been dieting on and off, and consistently failing, for years. I thought this time would be the same as all the others -- I'd lose 15 lbs max and get complacent. I'd put all the weight back on and more.

But I didn't. I've been committed and I've stuck this out even when it's torturous and even when I've made mistakes.

I want to thank everyone here on 3FC who has offered me guidance and support. I could not have come this far without 3FC. It's so comforting to know this place is here, even when I stuff up.

THANK YOU.

Now, 81 more pounds to go!

Thank you!

Nope, no special diet, just kind of winging it and vaguely counting my calories/lightly exercising. I do eat below my BMR, though, as I have PCOS. Like 1200 cals max instead of 2000+

Amy23 - Congratulations on your first goal.

We started about the same weight I was at 304 when I weighed-in in mid march. My first mini goal is 275. So far I have lost 24lbs, I've never really been a "dieter." I was just pretending to be comfortable with my weight. Now after a little over a month in I'm actually excited about changing my life.
