Hi everyone! I just found this site and am so excited to have people to talk to! lol I am currently working to lose some weight, in the past 3 weeks ive lost 7 lbs. I am currently at 259. Before I was at 215 and the lowest Ive been is 170. Ive been overweight since I was a child and I am only 22. I wanna live a long life, and fit into some of my smaller clothes! haha so Ive decided now is the time to start getting back on track!

also, where can I find those goal trackers everyone has? lol they are pretty neat

Hi Firecracker, welcome! Congrats on the 7 lb loss!!! You are SO smart to get a handle on your weight at your young age before it can spiral WAY out of control. Good for you! I believe the weight trackers are available to new members after they have been here for 20 days and have 20 posts. Good luck on your weight loss efforts! I'm sure you'll make lots of new friends!

Welcome to 3FC!!! We have subforums based on age, eating plan, exercise and more. Surf around and settle in!

Hi Firecracker!

I'm pretty new here myself but I can relate to being the 'big friend' - that's pretty much how I ended up here since my other friends don't really understand what I'm trying to do in losing weight. It's definitely comforting to see all these people in the same boat have the same kinds of issues.

Best of luck on your journey!
