Smile Hi - New and Eager
Hi Everyone!!
I have been looking thru the forums and I must say - so many people are so inspiring. I decided that I needed some sort of support as I am terrified I am going to mess up.
I am 38 and have struggled with my weight over the last 15 years. When I was in high school I was anorexic. I was brought up in a home with a terrible food perception. My sister began counting calories in 2nd grade..
Well last year my husband and I lost lots of weight watching our eating, portion control and exercise. I lost 69 pounds in 5 months. Well, I fell off the wagon I gained it all back and more. I currently weigh the most I have ever weighed - 263 pounds!!!
I began my new healthy lifestyle last Wednesday after a heart to heart discussion with my primary.. since then I have lost 8 pounds.. so I am feeling pretty excited!! I really need to stay on the right track, but not over the top.. It's not hard for me to get there..
I am so excited to have found this forum, everyone is so nice and supportive!

Looking forward to getting to know everyone!!

Welcome to 3FC! I'm glad you're here! Surf around and settle in. We have forums based on age, eating plan, exercise, and more!

I guess I would just say that unless you are the first perfect person ever, you WILL mess up. It is truly what you do after the mess up that directs your fate. You can do this!
