    I'm completely lost

    I've never done anything like this before (posting, blogging) so I'm feeling a little intimidated at the moment!

    I started my (newest) weight-loss journey in August 2008 only to slip over the holidays & gain 10 lbs back. This is the story of my life - start, do well, slip-up, gain more weight - repeat. I am starting over (hopefully for the last time) & need some encouragement & inspiration. I found this site by accident & I'm hoping that this is exactly what I've been looking for to help keep me motivated.

    Hoping to meet some new friends

    It's okay We've all got to start somewhere!

    Try clicking around through this area: http://www.3fatchicks.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=40

    You'll find some forum information.

    Believe me 10lbs over the holidays can be undone, and you can return to better eating. Those 10lbs do NOT take away from the fact that you've made some good changes since August, and you're here NOW. (Imagine waiting until next August to start again! Yikes!)

    We'd love to help support you along the way Post & reply as often as you like, wherever you're comfortable!

    Welcome to the forum, Sunny!

    This was the first forum I joined, and yes, it was initially intimidating. But before I knew it, I was the top poster.
    Please keep posting... it's great to have you join us!

    I'm brand new here too. You'll love it here. Don't worry about the weight gain you came here so you're ready for the change.
