    I am new to this website and just wanted to say hi. I need people in my life that can identify with food the way I do. There are times I am in tears I want to eat so bad....always looking for that ultimate ahhhhhh and never finding it in the food anymore. I try to pretend I don't care at times....but if I didn't care I woldn't have found this website now would I have? Anyway, am I in the right place?

    Hello, Donna, and to 3fc! Don't worry, most all women (and men!) here can identify with that, either ongoing or at some previous point, exactly. But the good news is that, with a little support, you can break through it. The best part of it all is that you can get through it while surrounded by tons of people who get what you're going through exactly, who all seem to have loads of great advice and a highly supportive attitude.

    Not only are you in the right place but we're glad that you are here

    you know what i have been thinking about 3FC lately is how amazing it is that in all the time i've spent reading and posting, i have never once read anything mean, or even sarcastic (well, not meanly sarcastic!). Everyone here is so encouraging, and it is simply the culture of the place.
    You're in the right place -- keep posting!!
    By the way -- I'm right down the Pike in Watertown!!

    Hello Donna,

    from what I've seen so far you've definitely come to the right place - it's full of people who understand and care. I can identify with what you've said about using food to hit a spot and lately not getting that out of it anymore. Maybe that's a useful sign, showing us that food is there to nourish and to be enjoyed, not to obsess over.
