New here and trying to change my life.

  • Hello, well first off I just signed up today, and was happily suprised to see there was a group of 300+ I am literally the biggest person I know, yes even my husband(which is more painful than I want to admit) and I didnt know if there were many other people who are as big as I am, thankfully I am not the only one, most of the time I def feel that way... I am just getting started yet again, I lost 20lbs and gained 5 back. I feel pretty hopeless, I lost 20lbs, and I worked really hard for it, and its seemed to take forever and then I gained it back so easily, I feel very frustrated, but its going to be so nice to be able to talk! So I would love to meet new friends, sometimes I feel so alone. Thanks for listening!!
  • Nice to meet you Chrissy. Welcome!
  • Chrissy! You will realize pretty fast that everyone here knows EXACTLY how you feel. It definitely does help to know we are not alone! Keep reading and posting. You will find an amazing support system here!!
  • You aren't alone anymore! Welcome! We all can feel your frustrations, it is hard but not impossible.
  • Hi There Chrissy,
    No one is alone here on 3FC. I would like to invite you to join us on the POSITIVE UPLIFTING MOTIVATION: ONE Positive about me today is..... Part Eight. It's located here in the 300+ section. It's a great place to start your day or end it. We want to hear about the positive things that happend to you the day before or that very day. It doesn't always have to be about losing a few pounds, it can be anything positive. A great day at work, a good nights sleep, whatever. I start my day there every morning with my cup of coffee. If you have any questions feel free to ask anyone on 3FC. Everyone is very helpful.
    I look forward to getting to know you better and hearing about all the positives on this journey you are embarking on.
