Hi there!
This seems like such a friendly place, yet I was intimidated to post...
I'm here for the same reason as everyone else I bet. Gain knowledge, make friends, oh yeah, and lose weight too. ;3

Welcome and good luck!

Thats how I felt too, at first... now I just want to post all over and get to know the community. Welcome and good luck

Hi and welcome to 3FC. Good luck with your goals.

Hugs
Michelle

Hi TinyLione!
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! There's also info and first hand advice on different eating plans and exercise to help you choose the right ones 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!
