Well, here I am; another fat chick on a diet. Except this time I refuse to diet. I am going to embrace a new life, surrounded by and supported by those who understand the cruel whispers of the Little Debbie box; who know what it's like to have strange chocolate call your name as you walk by; who can relate to irresistible pull of "just one more bite!" Ah, yes! Back to the gym today and now my legs ache and are begging me to just walk into the kitchen, grab a bowl of cookies and cream extreme ice cream (covered in Reese's peanut butter shell, mind you - and I do mean COVERED), and collapse on the couch... give or take the Biggest Loser dvr'ed shows.. Hooray for 20 gauge chains wrapped around the fridge!!!

Good job! It sounds like you've got the motivation, and in this battle we're fighting, motivation is more important than ANYTHING else! Keep up the exercise and you'll start seeing good changes. Keep it up!!

Hi and welcome to 3FC!

Seems like you are on the right track. Good luck with your goals.

Hugs

Hi. Your post made me hungry for everything I can not have, but I HAVE the will power to not go get it. I am happy to hear you have the same will power and motivation to get healthy. Good luck and see you around the board.

good for you for looking at it as a life change. i use the word "diet" because its the easiest for people to understand, but it's a commitment for me to be thinner and healthier for life.

post here and post often! for my first several months on here i posted constantly. we all understand the little frustrations and cravings. you will find a lot of support.

Thanks for the hello's everyone!! Support is an awesome thing!! I gotta get me one of those chart tracker things at the bottom of my posts!

Have to be a member 20 days and have 20 posts for the ticker in signature

Sounds do-able! Thanks!!
