That's how long I've been fat. Sometimes I'm really fat (like now, at 254 pounds) and often I'm just pretty darned fat. It seems like I gain and lose the same 50 pounds over and over.

I'm 41 and I'm getting tired of the yo yo. I don't want to be skinny, just healthy. It's good to find a place with people who understand. I hope to get to know you all better.

Welcome! I think that you'll find lots of good support here!

Have you decided on a plan?

Hi and welcome to 3FC!
