Hello from Canada

  • Just wanted to say hello and introduce myself.

    I am 27 years old and moved from home about 5 years ago. When I left home, I weighed 150lbs and today, I way, OMG, 222lbs. I am desperately trying to get back to how I use to be. I tried weight watchers, south beach, fat loss for idiots and so on and found my self hating every program I tried and being on a budget, can't really afford going to other weight loss places (curves, jenny craig...). I have a hard time cooking most of the meals since my BF refuses to eat any "diet recipes". I don't get much support from him, so I decided to come here after reading about 3FC in a magazine.

    I had started working out at the free gym where I work, and so far I had dropped to 217. A tragedy hit my family and I gave up working out and watching what I eat and gained 5 lbs back. Now I am ready to start again.

    I joined this group for support as I don't really have any with the people I am around with.

    Sorry for blabbering...
  • you will find all the support you need here! You can do it!
  • Welcome! I'm fairly new here too, but it's been a very encouraging and supportive place. I hope you'll find it that way too.

    We're all here for you!
