Hi everyone,I 36 years old, 5'4 and weigh 235. Over the past year I have gained almost 75 lbs.
My goal is to get down to 135, so I can be healthier. I also have very large breast and that is another reason. I want to loose weight and then get a breast reduction. I am so ready to feel better and be able to do things with my family without being out of breath or tired.

Welcome and good luck on reaching your goal. You can do it.

The thinner u get the healthier u feel!!!! I was at 205 when I first began my journey and also at 5'4. Also, those huge breast will deflate some what as u go down. GOOD LUCK!!!!

Welcome to 3FC and good luck with your goals.

Hugs
Michelle

Hi tl0127.....welcome and good luck. Remember to take one day at a time.

Hi tl0127!
Sounds like you're ready to get started on a healthier, happier you - good luck with your goals - we're all here to cheer you on!

Glad to have you join us! There are lots & lots of different groups and forums - I'm sure you'll find some that will keep you motivated, inspired and entertained! You'll also find info and first hand advice on different plans to help choose the right one for you and get through the ups and downs.

There are bunches of people here with more to lose and some with less - the bottom line is that we all have to do it a day at a time. The good thing is that we'll have lots of company along the way.

I've only been here a few months myself, having NEVER been part of an online forum. What has been so eye-opening is how much it has helped me. Whenever I feel overwhelmed or defeated, I just log on and read some of the success stories, complete with their before & after photos - or read about others still dealing day to day with their challenges - and before I know it, the time has flown by and so have all the thoughts of cheating or giving up.

So welcome - you've found the right place - join in by inspiring us and being inspired!

Welcome...come back often and lurk, read, or write...whatever suits your fancy!

Cathy
