Another newbie!

  • Hi everyone,

    I stumbled on this site today and am pretty excited about the idea of sharing my weight loss with supportive people.

    I am overweight and need to lose 23 kg - sure, there are lots of reasons to slim down. The main reason for me is that I'd love to start doing half marathons around the world, which has been a long forgotten goal of mine back in the day when I did 10km runs regularly (before university and office life).

    I woke up for the umpteenth time this morning swearing off take-outs, chocolate, wine and cigarettes...this time, however, I decided to join a support group and get some peer pressure motivating me to stick to it.

    So here goes!

    Looking forward to sharing your journeys with you
  • Welcome to 3FC! What a fantastic and exciting goal! I wish you the best of luck and hope to see pics from your marathons some day

  • Hi and welcome to 3FC!

    Hugs

  • Hey.

    Couldn't help but laughing when I read about the swearing off all bad things part of your post. I swear I do that every week!!!! Most often it's Mexican Cokes that I'm swearing off.

    Glad you've joined, and I think your half marathon goal is awesome. I've never been a runner, but a friend of mine started training for a 1/2 Marathon about a year ago and she looks amazing.

    I'm really excitied to hear how it goes. Good luck.
